‘Nothing you want comes without a fight. That’s a lesson I learn more and more everyday. Life is what you make it and I intend on making life the best it can be. Being a dancer helped me realize my dreams are not that far from my reach. I’ve danced for 10 years and it gives me the discipline that is needed for everyday life. I performed at the Alvin Ailey City Group Theater and the experience was awesome. It makes me want to work and train harder and become one of the best. Modeling is the coolest. I love fashion. It allows you to express yourself without “saying much”. Modeling allows you to become a chameleon. You get to become a character in order to portray or sell am item and even at times represent a brand. I love doing photo shoots. It requires you to become what the photographer tells you to become. Yet strangely I want to do much more. Aspiring to be a recording artist performer/entertainer ties into the mix as well. I’m a song writer so I aspire to bring my vision and my lyrics to life on stage as well as in the art form of music itself. Song writing requires you to do nothing but live and experience life. And as long as you are living you’ll always have something to write about. Eventually I want my sense of style, song, and dance to captivate the on-lookers and hold their attention long enough so they not only understand but feel what I am saying and experience what I am feeling at that particular moment in time.’
