Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

For a very long time, my voice was ignored and at its worst - blamed for the atrocities of others. After repeated cycles of horrific relationships that only continued to outdo the next, I chose to walk away with just my son as no one gave me a chance to share my side of the story. With 24 months of pole, exotic and aerial experience I use my body as an extension to share the predicaments I've faced. My specialty is pole freestyle as I enjoy dancing in the moment based on the ambience around me.

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

Being in Ciara's music video would be life-changing as the finances would go directly to my 5 yo son and my father who has stage 3 pancreatic cancer (chemo failed). As an only child and single mom at 36 years old who faced abuse for most of my life, this is an opportunity unheard of and I'd like to believe that if somehow I do manage to be selected - others will start to believe themselves too, even if no one else does.

What would you do with the $20,000?

Things are very challenging as an individual escalates despite a restraining order and my elderly father is deteriorating from stage 3 pancreatic cancer as chemo failed. As a single parent, finances are always a challenge and with things the way they are going...it would be nice to have funds to improve the life of my son and I.
