Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

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

It would be a dream come true to work with Ciara. I remember having her dvd with choreography from her videos.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would invest in stocks to keep money flowing. With the rest I could use as start up money to create a dance team for talented young girls and boys who don’t have the opportunity in the small city that I’m from.
