I have the heart, the love, the push, and the creative mind to push dance to the next level. Dance isn’t something I just like, it’s in me.

Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My inspiration would be anyone with disabilities. Working with disabled adults and children has truly opened a new world for me. Seeing them find the confidence and bringing in their own choreography, it’s truly inspiring. I love hip hop!

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

It would impact my life so much, I’ve never been so lucky to be out there and show the drive and creativity I have. Dancing is my escape from the struggles of life I go through. I just want to bring the love, escape, the passion and “your” own story told by dance. I want to impact others it’s my purpose in life and I’m glad to finally take the driver seat in my dancing career.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would open my own dance studio for disability of all ages and hold classes for everyone else as well. I once was a dance teacher for disability and I had showcased my own dance show. It gave me the passion and drive to do more for them dancing was there escape it meant something for them and I want to hold a safe space and where talent and creativity can be shown their ideas will be valid as will everyone else’s. I just want to bring dance a whole new world for them and for others.
