I have been dancing for over 15 years, training at Xplosive Dance Academy, where I developed a strong technical foundation and artistic versatility. I am trained in a wide range of styles including ballet, jazz, tap, acro, hip hop, and contemporary, and have spent several years competing, which strengthened my performance quality, discipline, and adaptability.

Today, I teach younger artists primarily in tap, jazz, and hip hop, where I focus not only on developing technical skill, but also on building confidence, creativity, and a strong sense of individuality in each dancer. I am passionate about creating a supportive and inspiring environment that encourages growth both inside and outside the studio.

My goal is to share my love and passion for dance with the next generation while continuing to evolve as an artist myself. I am committed to expanding my research on movement and the art of dance, with a particular focus on hip hop, contemporary, jazz, and tap, while continuously refining my artistry through exploration, education, and different experiences. 

Beyond the studio, I am currently a full-time student at Valencia College with the intention of transferring to UCF, where I plan to continue my studies majoring in Financial Accounting. Balancing both my academic and artistic paths allows me to grow as a well-rounded individual, bringing discipline, creativity, and purpose into everything I pursue.
