Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

Being on the dance team in high school brought out my passion to communicate with my body. Five years ago, I started with no experience, but watching jazz and hip-hop choreography turned into lots of body control practice. I take a lot of inspiration from my love for K-Pop because the entire song has moves and engaging my face is half of the fun. I love to be smooth while hitting the audience with something unexpected. I think that sharing myself with audiences is a beautiful way to be heard.

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

I have never been one to take on big opportunities since I grew up very quiet and scared. With this, I’ve decided to try to improve myself while doing what makes me truly feel like myself. The opportunity to directly support such a powerful Grammy-winning female artist sounds way too good and exciting to be true, but as not many opportunities come to my hometown I want to do something that will challenge me to be better in all aspects.

What would you do with the $20,000?

While I would put most of the money into my college education fund, I would also love to put some towards taking more time and classes for dance or music production. As I work towards my associates degree at community college, I struggle to invest time in the things that I’d like to explore for possible future careers, such as dance, singing, and anything performance oriented.
