Summary
I began dancing not long after I began walking. By the age of three I was enrolled in dance classes. I am now 15 and continue to love expressing myself through dance. I attend class in multiple styles including jazz, hip hop, ballet, musical theater and contemporary. I work hard and try to encourage others as well. Being a good teammate who is reliable, loyal, trustworthy, and respectful is important to me. I am a organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.
