Dancer

I did not start taking dance seriously until college. I have minored in Dance, taking a range of classes from Modern I to Dance Improve/Composition. I also participated as a dancer and a choreographer for my college's cultural dance and dance club. And lastly, I served as one of the captain's of my college's dance team, the Hawkettes. As of right now, I am taking Zumba classes and uploading dance content on to my Youtube channel. I hope to dance with an adult dance company someday and either become a dance or Zumba instructor.
