I’m the next Dance Icon because I do everything for and with God. God is the forefront of my passion and the reason I have my gift.

Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My dance style is a mix of Hip-Hop, Jazz, and Afro styles. I love free-styling, grooving, and telling a story through my dancing and artistry. My inspiration is God. By God’s will and grace, I am the dancer that I am now. I grew up watching Michael Jackson, Ciara, Chris Brown, Beyoncé, Missy Elliot, Paris Goebel, Ebony Williams, and Fatima Robinson. These dancers and artists play a big role in the way I move today and I aspire to shake the dance industry like they did and still do.

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

Being in Ciara’s music video will impact my life tremendously. Not only will I get exposure but most importantly be around talented, gifted people who care about their craft and mastering what they do. Not only will I be able to learn from and shadow these professionals but also get insight on the industry and what it takes to BE a professional.

What would you do with the $20,000?

The $20,000 will go to funding my college tuition. I currently go to school in Boston, paying $50,000 a year to be in school for 3 years. I’m not on a scholarship and I don’t know how long i’ll be in school for if I don’t get any funding, coming from an immigrant family.
