Deonizio is the Founding Director of the nonprofit Dancin Power, which gives individuals access to creative and expressive arts during hospitalization.

Deonizio has a graduate degree in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Expressive Arts Therapy, which she combines with her practical understanding of the impact that music has had in her work as a dancer and choreographer.
