To empower/give back to our youth of all colors through dance as a Filipino American artist, videographer, & community leader from Alaska.
Help me compete to become the Dance Icon and appear in a music video with Ciara and win $20,000!
My dance style is, "Storytelling" blending the styles of Popping, Waving, House, Animation, and Krump, to create a unique narrative through movement. Inspired by Hip-Hop and its passionate dancers surrounding it, my goal is to connect deeply with each song, honoring the artist’s work and their story. Through this, I aim to create a powerful, meaningful experience and connection for both the audience and the artist when I work with them.
Being in Ciara's music video would be life-changing. As a dancer from a small but enriched community like Anchorage, it would be an amazing opportunity to represent them through this experience. This opportunity would allow me to showcase my 15 years of building my craft and spreading more Alaska flavor on the map. It’s not just a career break for me; it’s a chance to give back to my family, friends, and community, inspiring others to believe they too can succeed
With $20,000, I'd invest in an arts hub to provide a space for the Anchorage community to grow and learn with any art they desire. I’d also treat my mom to an international trip for her well-deserved retirement this year. Additionally, I’d use the funds to travel and compete at out-of-state Open Style dance events, representing Anchorage and connecting with dancers nationwide to share knowledge and elevate my craft. These steps would empower my community and honor the support
The search is on for eight dancers to be flown to a live judged event in Phoenix, AZ, showcasing their skills to Ciara and her choreographer, Jamaica Craft. One will be chosen to appear in her upcoming music video and win $20,000!
