Since the age of 10 years old I’ve loved to dance. Ciara inspired me to find joy in dancing. I remember watching her on MTV since I was 10.

My dance style is Latin and Hip-Hop. I grew up looking up to Selena, Ciara, J-Lo, Beyonce and Cassie on MTV. They inspired me to grow up with a passion for dance. Another inspiration of mine was my high school teacher. She was our cheer coach and made me find the beauty and art in dance.Today, I love to go salsa dancing. If you find me at home, you can find me dancing in my room and putting a choreography together. I love dancing with my mom on my free time.
Growing up I had a dream of becoming a professional choreographer. I was raised by a single mom, it was difficult to make ends meets. As the oldest, I grew up taking care of others, leaving my childhood dream behind. Being in Ciara’s music video would bring that dream back to reality and help me find myself again. I want to show my younger sibling's that you can accomplish your dreams. It’s never too late to reawaken your inner child’s dreams.
My step father passed away in 2021 from Cancer. We lost our home that we were living in. My family and I have had to start all over again three times in our lives. My mother went back to working two jobs since then. Shes been exhausted and deals with health issueIt breaks my heart that I can’t help her financially. What I would do with the earnings is build a small business, save some for my college tuition, and I’d love to use that money as a down payment to surprise my family wit
