I have also danced with the New York Radio City Rockettes for a summer intensive program. I was also dance team captain at Park Vista Community High School.

People of Influence (why?): I would definitely say that my Mom is my biggest influence; she is always there for me and pushes me to my best potential. My Mom always does all she can for me and wants the best for me. She is always there for me to talk to when times are good or bad. She is my best friend! She is my biggest inspiration and always supports what I do.
