Q: Did you always want to be a dancer?
A:I started dance when I was five, but wasn’t really interested in it.
I was just put in it. Around age 6 or 7 though, one of my teachers approached my parents and told them that they thought I had talent. I started doing private lessons, being more serious, and had a lot of solos.
Q: What is your dance ‘style?’
A:I was trained in ballet, jazz, tap and lyrical from age 5 until 18.
