Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

Dancing has been my passion since the age of three, with Hip Hop always feeling like home. As I trained at Stockton University, I developed a deep love for Modern and Contemporary, shaping me into a versatile choreographer. The fusion of these styles allows me to tell multiple stories through movement, creating a flow that speaks beyond words. Dance is more than an art—it’s a part of me, and my love for all styles continues to drive my growth and creativity.

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

Being in Ciara’s music video would be a dream come true, elevating my dance career and showcasing my versatility in Hip Hop, Modern, and Contemporary. It would prove that faith, passion, and perseverance open doors. This opportunity would push me further, connect me with industry leaders, and allow me to tell powerful stories through movement. More than a moment, it’s a step toward my purpose and a chance to show my 3-year-old daughter that dreams are always within reach.

What would you do with the $20,000?

With $20,000, I’d take a major step toward my dream of owning a dance studio. I’d invest in a space, talented teachers, and support young dancers who can’t afford training. This isn’t just money—it’s an opportunity to give back, inspire, and create a home for future dancers to chase their dreams. It’s the next big step in shaping my career while uplifting the next generation through the power of dance.
