Thank you for supporting me in this competition. Your donations and participation will benefit the Why Not You Foundation in their mission to fight poverty through education initiatives that empower youth to lead with a why not you attitude.

 

Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My dance style is a combination of self-taught Hip-Hop and college taught Modern with hints of everything else I've learned along the way! My inspirations come from early music videos and my dance ideology comes from Merce Cunningham, "dance for dance sake!"

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

Being in Ciara's music video would impact my life by fulfilling one of my longest life goals: to be a backup dancer! Ever since I decided to become a dancer, that has always been one of my top goals. It would also help me in my journey to opening my own creative arts center and dance company.

What would you do with the $20,000?

With the $20,000 I would be able to take time to invest in my dance training to further my goals of starting my own dance company and invest further into my massage therapy business!
