Born and Raised in the vibrant streets of New York City, proud of my roots in the Dominican Republic. From a young age, I was captivated by the rhythm and movement of dance, thanks to an inspiring after-school program that sparked my passion. Dance became my voice, allowing me to express emotions and stories in ways I never thought possible. Over the years, I've been fortunate enough to work with renowned dance companies and jet-set across the globe, performing in breathtaking locations both internationally and throughout the U.S. My journey has been filled with thrilling collaborations alongside incredible artists and choreographers, making each experience more exhilarating than the last!

During my middle school years, I participated in an after-school program with Alvin Ailey, which I sustained into my early high school experience. However, upon entering high school, I discovered the absence of a formal dance curriculum. In response, I proactively established an after-school dance program for my peers, which has continued to thrive and remains operational today.

My training began at the prestigious Alvin Ailey Residency, where I built a strong technical foundation that continues to shape my artistry. From there, I expanded into reggaeton and Latin fusion, using dance as a way to connect with and explore Latino culture. I further developed my heels, street style, and versatility through training and collaboration with choreographers including Cisco Ruelas, Anthony A. Auguste, and Sinque Taveras as well as talented artists throughout New York City. These experiences have allowed me to blend technique, culture, and individuality into a style that feels uniquely my own.

I have had the opportunity to collaborate with a diverse range of artists across various mediums. Notably, I worked alongside Richy Jackson on an Idina Menzel music video, where I served as a featured dancer. My performance continued with a project for J Balvin, expanding my experience in the music video landscape.
In live performance, I showcased my skills at Lincoln Center and had the pleasure of dancing for Dominican merengue artist Miriam Cruz. I then took my talents on tour with RuPaul's Drag Race winner, Alaska Thunderf*ck, traveling to Australia and across 26 states throughout the USA. My stage presence reached award shows, where I performed alongside acclaimed personalities such as Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers. I advanced my career by taking on on-air talent responsibilities and participating in a campaign shoot for Burjus Heels, specifically for the "Be You in Burjus" Pride campaign. Additionally, I contributed to the Harry Potter New York flagship store campaign. This project allowed me to express my enthusiasm for the Harry Potter universe and showcase my wand-handling techniques, which added an engaging element to the campaign.
