Starting Berklee College of Music in Fall '08. Double majoring in vocal performance and music production.

What other talents do you have?

I can act!! I love acting and I sing....r&b, hip-hop, and even classical...yes, classical.

What do you hope to gain from your 'Dance Crew' experience?

I hope to meet new people and get connected with different styles of dance. This will also bring members from our team closer together.

Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Usher and James Brown (oh yeah).

What is a source of inspiration for your dancing career?

My little brother Dante. The first one who told me to do what I wanted to, no matter what anyone said. He's the reason why I still dance today. R.I.P. Dante!
