Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

I’m a hip-hop dancer from Milwaukee, WI, also trained in ballet, modern, contemporary, African, and jazz. Under the training of a former So You Think You Can Dance contestant, I was able to achieve many goals, including completing several dance intensives led by industry choreographers, performing with my local professional basketball team dance team, choreographing dances performed at one of the largest music festivals in the country, and earning dance convention awards. 

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

Dancing with Ciara would not only give me great exposure to what working in the industry really looks like but also give me space to grow my craft alongside my peers, create new industry connections, and be inspired by Ciara’s undeniable artistry.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I’m an out-of-state student attending a private HBCU, so the prize would definitely help with my college tuition.  My goal is to become a pediatric surgeon who just happens to be an amazing dancer, too.
