When I was nine years old, I discovered my love for Latin ballroom dancing. Since the day I first walked into the studio, I never stopped! Latin ballroom is such a fun, energetic, and entertaining style, but it also comes with passion, emotion, and control. My favorite styles are Cha Cha and Paso Doble, but to be honest, I love them all. I also grew a love for hip hop, and I love combining the two! Both hip hop and Latin are entertaining and fun, but both take lots of energy and hard work.

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

I am just at the beginning of my dance career journey. I have always been known as “the ballroom girl” and I am proud of that. I think letting my latin ballroom have a chance to be seen in a music video setting would help me build a community and find my place in the dance world.

What would you do with the $20,000?

Like I said, I am just at the start of my journey which is so exciting, but comes with some costs! For example, I am hoping to move to LA to position myself in the place where so much opportunity for dancers is available! I would use the money for an apartment and the things that come with that. I would also love to give back in some way to the dance like hosting some free classes for dancers to get exposure to latin ballroom!
