Who am I?

Where do I start ? A creative Enigma because I can't be put in a box and that's my super power! An energetic bright spirit that loves life. This life's journey has thrown me down so many times and my tenacity and resilient spirit keeps me going. I live in the space of creative arts and have a background in Fitness and dance. Studied many different disciplines in the arts from a child. I was a naturally taught dancer and artist. My family was extremely gifted and I was surrounded by music and art. I attended the applicably named "Fame" Laguardia High School Of the Performing Arts and received an accredited Visual Arts High School Diploma. I also went abroad to Switzerland on scholarship for Art and Dance with Altier Du Jazz and Art. There is where I discovered my artistic voice. After graduating from Westchester Community college with my Associates in Performing Arts Dance. I started teaching dance for a community dance and music center in the Bronx . I also taught liturgical dance at a few churches while pursuing a career in acting around the same time. My career in Fitness began after I ventured into the world teaching exercise for community organizations. I started off at a YMCA and was also the coordinator for the fitness Department for a few years there. Then was offered a job as a Group Ex . Coordinator for The New York Sports Club in Manhattan in which I taught fitness and dance all over the tri-state area. I was also dancing and auditioning for many projects, indie films, commercials, showcases, and was performing with three dance crews competing locally. I was featured on a few T. V. shows series and danced behind a few artists in videos. I have had a wild ride. My life has been days of soreness from rehearsals, headaches, heartache from rejections and days of exhilarating moments of triumph when I get the role or parts. I have had my share of projects that were false, producers that were sneaky, shady and projects that never ever came to fruition due to members not being as committed as I was. All in all I managed to keep going and haven't stopped yet. My energy is spontaneous. Even with being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease in 2019 nothing has stopped my momentum. I believe I have a unique sexy style that's incredibly playful which makes me stick out. I currently have an exhibit in the Harlem Fine Arts Show online displaying a few of my artistic ability and during the pandemic was working on my book of poetry and Illustrations. Due out faithfully this year!


What do I think about The Fashion Hero TV series?

I think that this is going to be exciting to be part of and I see how amazing the other past contestants were. I am ecstatic to be a contestant in this series. It looks like a challenging yet rewarding experience . I welcome the challenge. It looks totally unique that TFH is making a decision to show that real everyday people can be beautiful in their own way. I encourage this in friends and people that I meet. I also have a knack at seeing what is appropriate for the individuals body type, skin tone and personality. I love to bring people out of their shell!


Why would I be a great role model for this generation and inspire people as the new face of The Fashion Hero?

I have great dimples, motivative energy and I will bring a stylish creative different flare to this show. I love color and I know how to use it. I know that everyone has the potential to accentuate their positive attributes physically and make their inner beauty come out more. I know that people will enjoy watching me have fun being me like they do when I'm dancing.
