Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My go to dance style is a combination of hip hop and contemporary movements. I like going between flowy and sharp movements depending on the song. My inspiration comes from varying artists, even close peers. I find myself wanting to tackle different styles when looking at them dance with ease yet performing very difficult pieces . I also aspire to be a choreographer and put my own works on a stage for others to see and get a peak at my own creativity and expressions.

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

Being in Ciara’s music video would transform my life. I’d have more professional experience as a dancer and also learn more about myself as an artist. I believe that it could potentially open doors for me in the performance world. I’d be able to meet with the other dancers there and connect with them as well, which I think it’d be fun!

What would you do with the $20,000?

With the $20,000 I honestly think I’d put some of it towards law school, then the other half would be helping me move to a bigger city so I can continue my dream of becoming a professional performer and never stop growing.
