Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

I loveeee Hiphop, it’s definitely my favorite style of dance. I’m inspired by Parris Goebel, Jaquel knight, Sean Bankhead, Luther Brown, sienna lalau, Tricia Miranda, Kassidy Bright and so many more!!! They inspire me to be a better dancer everyday. I dream of one day becoming a studio owner/professional choreographer. But for now I dedicate my time after school to train and train.

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

Dancing alongside an icon like Ciara would truly be a dream come true. In that moment, I would proudly say, "My hard work has paid off." This experience would prove that dreams can become reality with dedication, focus, and relentless effort. It would also serve as an inspiration to younger dancers, showing them that with perseverance, they too can achieve their goals. Thank you for giving me this incredible opportunity to showcase my talent.

What would you do with the $20,000?

Save it for college.
