My family and I run a nonprofit organization to help raise suicide awareness in our community and communities surrounding it. Each year, we hold an essay contest for three different high schools in South Philadelphia where three winners are chosen. They have rewarded scholarships based on an essay prompt of how to prevent suicide. Their essay must also include how people of all ages everywhere can do their part in being there for those in need.
Favorite Appearance and why:
The New Kids On The Block Concert was my favorite appearance! Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamt of dancing on stage at a concert. The Cheerleaders and I surprised the crowd by performing to an 80's mashup singalong! The crowd was ecstatic and you could feel the electricity in the air. I will always remember that feeling and the energy on the stage that night! My dream finally came true and as an Eagles Cheerleader no less!
During my personal time I teach dance to children of all ages at my family-owned dance studio, located right in my neighborhood in South Philly. I have been dancing since I was able to walk and it is a gift that I am proud to have. I love that I can pass on my craft to those in my community!
I made a modeling appearance on the Wendy Williams show back in 2018!
I have the privilege to pridefully take part in an age-old Philadelphia tradition as a Philadelphia Mummer! Being a Mummer allows me to perform and bring joy to the citizens of Philadelphia every January 1st and all year round. I am also a part of an organization within the tradition, named the Spartans NYB, that operates year-long by doing community service and holding fundraisers to help those in need. The Philadelphia Mummers are much more than just a fun and exciting performance on New Years Day. I am so proud to have been born into an organization that gives back to the community in the ways that they do!
Three words that describe me: Passionate, Prideful, Fierce
Favorite form of exercise other than dancing: Long, scenic walks around Philadelphia!
