Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My dance style leans toward a more classical approach, shaped by years of experience and maturity. Being older, I embrace the beauty of refined, intentional movement. My true inspiration comes from storytelling—using my body as a vessel to express emotions and narratives that words cannot capture. I aim to transport the audience, connecting them to the heart of the story and creating an experience that resonates beyond the performance itself.

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

Being in a Ciara music video would be life-changing because it would validate my journey as a dancer, showcase my artistry on a global stage, and inspire others to pursue their passions, no matter their age. It’s a chance to live my dream and contribute to something iconic while proving that creativity knows no limits.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would invest $20,000 to deepen my dance practice and expand my knowledge through advanced training and development, enabling me to inspire and guide the next generation as a dedicated and impactful dance educator.
