Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

I train in many styles of dance. Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Contemporary, Lyrical and Hip Hop. Hip Hop is one of my favorite styles as it allows me to express myself and I enjoy putting a smile on the faces of those watching me. It makes me happy when I can make others feel good. I get inspiration from my friends in the dance industry. We are always routing for each other to be successful. My mom also inspires me to be my best self and never give up on my dreams.

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

Well I guess the most obvious impact would be the social impact it would have on my career. But more importantly I would get to train with professionals in the entertainment industry and I feel I would learn a lot which would help me grow as a performer and a person.

What would you do with the $20,000?

My mom says we always need to give back to others in need when we have the ability to do so. So if I win I would donate $5000 to a non profit and then put the rest in the bank because I'm saving money to buy a car and hopefully a house in Los Angeles some day so I can live there full time to further my career as a performer.
