My dance style is hard-hitting and grounded, inspired by hip-hop and street funk vibes. I grew up studying tap, jazz, and ballet until my parents couldn’t afford classes, so I taught myself by learning choreography from music videos on 106 & Park and similar shows. Dance has always been my outlet—a way to express emotions without words. My inspiration is rooted in resilience, never quitting, and keeping dance a part of my life, fueled by passion!
Being in Ciara’s music video would be a dream come true and a full-circle moment. Growing up, I learned choreography from her iconic videos, dreaming of being a tour dancer. This opportunity would alsonprovide visibility, potentially opening doors to more projects, representation, and reigniting a career I’ve always wanted. Even if it’s just this one moment, it would mean everything to say I took the chance and achieved something I’ve dreamed of my entire life.
If I won the $20K, I’d donate a portion to families displaced by California fires to give back. I’d help my mom with anything she needs because she always believed in my dance dreams. I’d treat myself to something nice, but I’d save the rest to prepare for future opportunities, like traveling for auditions or pursuing my dance career. This reward would not only support others but also help me invest in my passion and ensure I’m ready for whatever comes next.
