As a professional dancer, Raymond has worked internationally, participating in performances at the Amsterdam Fringe Festival, the Architecture Center of Vienna, the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, NY) and the G.A.S. Foundation in Lagos, Nigeria, among others.

They have completed residencies at Movement Research (New York, NY), The Center for Performance Research (Brooklyn, NY), the Baryshnikov Arts Center (New York, NY), and the Biennale di Danza (Venice, Italy).
