Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

The trials and tribulations of life, every thing that has pained me motivates me to continue my journey. Dance brought me a sense of stability when it came to all the chaos in my life. Whether it’s a class, a stage, a competition or my bedroom I let dance take every ounce of my feeling and translate it into something healthy, beautiful, sexy, sad. My style is what they call hard style, hitting every beat like it’s a sharp corner and leaving my audience with an adrenaline rush.

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

It would give me an experience that I can translate into my teaching. Open up opportunities for me and my students to learn and grow. It will also fulfill my dreams, of being a professional performer. Performing with a great artist.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would honestly buy a home. Dance was one of the main outlets that help me mature and get out of homelessness. I currently live in a tiny back home in the cut, I feel safe because I have great neighbors but a lady should not be living a lone in the ghetto. I would like to build stability for myself and my future children.
