Felipe Edmiston

Meet Felipe Gonzalez Edmiston, a Colombian-born dynamo whose journey from South America to the United States has been nothing short of extraordinary. Arriving in the U.S. at the tender age of 14, Felipe quickly found his rhythm and discovered his passion for ballroom dancing.

Immersing himself in the world of dance, Felipe underwent professional training in Orem, Utah, at UVSC (Utah Valley University). His dedication and talent propelled him to compete on a global stage, earning high rankings and accolades throughout the ballroom dancing community. In the fall of 2014, Felipe co-founded the local charity “Dancing with the Stars of Charlotte”

Beyond the dance floor, Felipe is a philanthropist at heart. His involvement in charitable endeavors has raised over $7 million for local charities in Charlotte, where he currently resides. Five years ago, fueled by his creativity and flair for design, Felipe ventured into the world of interior design. He honed his skills at the renowned New York School of Interior Design, merging his passions for dance and design seamlessly.

For Felipe, dance and design are not just professions but a way of life. He brings the same natural movement and flow that characterize his dance performances into his design aesthetic. As the founder of his own interior design firm, Felipe continues to create spaces that are not only visually stunning but also embody a sense of fluidity and harmony.

Currently based in Charlotte, NC, Felipe shares his life with his fiancé, Tom Fisher, and their two charming King Charles Cavaliers, Sofia and Stella. As he dances through life, Felipe remains committed to his passions, leaving an indelible mark on both the dance and design worlds.
