Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

Street turned pop .. I started to arching Michael Jackson so poppin , waving and moonwalking were my inspo for sure. Growing up in south Florida twerking also was part of my vocabulary. Then I started training in Heels and developed a love for lines and finally go into my feminine feels.

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

Cliche and typical answer, but I grew up watching Ciara. And I get I resonated with her style of hiphop but in tuned with her body and of course the music was also always it! OH , Goodies and 1,2 step (to name a few, were songs and videos that I truly saw myself dancing in.

What would you do with the $20,000?

I have two daughters, one 3 years old and the other almost 11 months. I would invest in them and myself. Finally be able to train even more with classes and a for a babysitter and continue their dance classes. Being I am in New York now, I have no family so my girls come to every class with me and it’s hard because sometimes my focus is split and I want them to see you can do hard things.
