Dance is the language of the soul. I feel most alive when I’m performing. I bring energy, power, and passion- I hope to inspire others
Help me compete to become the Dance Icon and appear in a music video with Ciara and win $20,000!
I have experience in various styles of dance, however I would say I’m most comfortable with hip hop. Dancers such as Alvin Ailey, Jojo Gomez, Paris Goebel, and Galen Hooks are some of my dance inspirations. I also attribute a lot of my inspiration for dance to my high school dance coach who was a huge part of honing the dancer I am today.
It would be a huge honor to do what I love at such a grand scale. I think it would be an amazing opportunity for me to go all out and put my heart out there and connect with other fellow dancers.
I would use the money to help retire my mom and contribute towards her buying her first home. I plan to also use it to help me pay off my car and start a savings account for graduate school in which I plan to get my masters.
The search is on for eight dancers to be flown to a live judged event in Phoenix, AZ, showcasing their skills to Ciara and her choreographer, Jamaica Craft. One will be chosen to appear in her upcoming music video and win $20,000!
