Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

I am trained and proficient in numerous dance styles-jazz, hip hop, ballet, lyrical, contemporary, pointe, kick line, pom, and tap. My dance style is unique and versatile. I am comfortable performing all styles that I have trained in, and I am always willing to dive into a new style at any moment. What makes my style unique is certification from the NYU x BACKSTAGE x TISCH program in performing arts. My inspiration comes from my family who have instilled in me faith, hard work, and resilience.

How would being in Ciara's music video impact your life?

Being in Ciara's music video would open infinite opportunities in my life. It would project my dance career and form me into a better dancer and performer. I would love to grow in my own style through this journey. I'd return home with enhanced knowledge in dance, auditioning, creation, and jobs. As a dance teacher and coach, I would be able to teach new techniques that I learned from this opportunity. The chance to be in this music video is overall, life changing.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would launch my own business, productAP. This company would have several tiers. There would be a production and performance company where myself along with other dancers would put on performances in the area choreographed by me. Because of my degrees in Kinesiology, it would contain an online workout program with blogs on health and nutrition, as well as ways for dancers to prevent injuries. It would also serve as a place for adult dancers to train and create.
