Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

My dance style is hip hop with a Latin flare. Being two races, I have always been drawn to both cultures and love embracing them. I danced professionally to samba for a while and am currently a drill team director. I literally love everything dance!

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

Growing up, I always imagined being in a music video! When Ciara made her debut, I wasn’t too much younger than her and would literally pretend I was in that video with her. This would not only make the young girl inside of me happy, but it would spark a part of me that has faded a little over time.

What would you do with the $20,000?

There are so many different ideas in my head at the moment. The obvious would be to put some away for my children, but I would also love to pour into the dance community. Whether that’s my dance team, events for those in the community or simply opening a studio. Anything is possible.
