Tell us about your dance style or inspiration:

I am influenced by so many styles of dance. I don't like to be boxed in! I grew up with jazz and tap, was in a hip hop crew in college and Latin dance team. I studied modern, ballet, jazz funk. And now I teach heels! ๐Ÿ‘ 

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

It would be a dream come true! I danced in college, but pursued an engineering degree. It has always been a dream of mine to perform in a music video. I grew up dancing and choreographing in my room to icons like Ciara and Missy Elliott, and who didn't try to nail that famous Ciara backbend!? You're never too old to achieve your dreams, and I'm not giving up!

What would you do with the $20,000?

I would follow my creativity and bring my visions to life through dance films, giving opportunities to local dancers. I have so many projects in the vault just waiting to be seen and felt. I want to inspire people through dance and show the world that our humanity is what connects us. And I would pursue my dreams of training with the best, and attending artist residencies to grow my unique perspective.
