Summary
With over two decades of experience in dance, I began dancing at the age of 3 and embarked on my competitive journey at age 12. Throughout my competitive tenure, I showcased my talents at national dance competitions and other stages such as Royal Caribbean's Cruise Ship and Florida State University halftime shows. Fueled by my love for dance, I found fulfillment in teaching at my home studio, where sharing the joy of creative expression with students became my passion.
