I love to dance. Skilled in Afro beats and Hip Hop dances.

In August 2015, I started a dance team organization (T.R.I.B.E) at the University of Toledo. This organization was created to improve diversity among students of the Toledo community, and also a safe place were people can be able to release and express themselves through dance. It was also created to make people comfortable of who they are, and feel "Sexy" and Confident in themselves. This organization was a huge success, as it brought together many people from different countries, backgrounds and ethnic groups. This bond was build through one universal language "DANCE", and up till date i am proud to say this organization is still thriving at the University of Toledo campus.
