What is your True Color Personality Style? My color is blue. Yes, I mostly agree with the description that my color says about me. I am still in search of myself and care deeply about loved ones and others. I often put others ahead of myself.

Who is your idol? Laurie Hernandez. I like how she is friendly and upbeat, but also determined to always do her best. She always looks on the bright side of things.

Why do you love to dance? I love that I can always express my emotions and myself through dance. I can always let out my energy and craziness by dancing and it makes me feel happier.

What is your proudest accomplishment & why? My proudest accomplishment has been accepting myself despite of my differences or flaws. Throughout high school, it has been hard for me when I compare myself to others.

What goals are you working on right now (in both dance & life)? I am working on patience and loving myself. In dance, I am working on learning choreography more quickly and on my flexibility.

Tell us about a difficult situation in your life and how you got through it. What did you learn? My first year and part of my second year in high school, I tried to get to know more people. It was hard because everyone hung out in groups and there was always someone in the group that didn’t really seem to accept me. I got through it by only hanging out with those individuals in the group that accepted and liked me, and learned to hang out with a variety of people rather than finding a single group to hang out with all the time.

What is the most daring thing you’ve ever done? I have been trying a lot of new things. I have learned to be more independent and that I can do things on my own without other people’s help, but that you can always ask other people for help and still be independent.

If you’ve been to ADTC, what is your favorite dance camp memory & why? My favorite memories are of the girls that I met and got to spend time with. I enjoyed hanging out with the friends I made.

What is your A.D.T.C. Superpower? Team-Player. I try to support and accept everyone.

What do you want other girls to learn from reading your #ADTCidol bio & story? I want them to know that no matter how different everyone is with dancing or in their lives that we all share similar stories and that everyone is loved.
