Dance Idols:
“Inspirational dancers that are humble, hungry, & passionate about their craft. Some of my favorite sets are Funks LA back in 2004, Breed’s HUD Set, CADC’s Fantasia Set, & PAC Modern’s Dream Within A Dream & The One Set. Some dancers I look up to are Adrian Causing, Carlo Badiola, Melvin Roque, Leslie Hubilla, Katrina Badiola, TJ Dela Cruz, Kristina Latonio, Dallas Augustine, Denniel Pamintuan, Harmony Cruz, Sonny Filamor, Lawrence Devera, Keonna Rucker, Gloryzen Mendoza, Kristine Taylan Bueta, & Phillip Geniza.”

Why do you dance?
“Because I am hungry. It’s a form of expression and my outlet. It’s my home away from home. Dance releases endorphins, which make people happy. I will forever be a student and I am always eager to learn.”
