Dancing has been the core of my life for as long as I remember. Of course, my dream goal was to dance with MJ and every bit of training I have had or experience I've gained, was in preparation for that moment. I started to build my resume from about age 8, doing print work, commercials, TV, stage and Broadway. After seeing Janet's "All for You" show when I was 6 confirmed my desire to be a dancer. To me, Janet was the next best thing to Michael, so when I was ten, I met her at the LA dancer's auditions in 2006, making it past all the cuts. I was sure it was a sign that my destiny would be fulfilled. Needless to say in 2009, my world was shattered when MJ was taken away, and I sunk, losing my purpose in life. Despite, the loss, I continued to do what MJ would want, so I danced. Mainly with Monsters of Hip Hop because after 8 years, it truly does feel like my family and it was the support that I needed. After 3 nominations, I am thrilled beyond description to finally be in the "Monsters of Hip Hop - The Show" this year. The 2011 cast is amazing (as were the preceding casts) and the choreographers are the best in the world. I aspire to be a working professional in the dance community.
