The Dance Mentor / Podcast Host - I help aspiring pro dancers create their dream dance careers

✨ SUCCESS magazine ✨I have a 4-page article with a photo of @paulaabdul & I and @wilmervalderrama from That 70s Show on the cover! 🎉 

This article means everything to me—not because of the recognition, or seeing myself on newsstands, but because of the transformation & struggle it took to get here.
 In 2020, I lost everything—my business, career, income, and identity—after years of building a successful 6-figure dance career. I tried everything to make ends meet, even offering free dance classes from home with a crying baby 😭
 But I didn’t quit. I leaned into my gift for mentoring dancers and created The Business of Dance, an online mentorship program. In August 2022, I made $17K on day one. That was the turning point.
 Fast forward to today: I’ve built a 7-figure business, mentoring 200+ dancers worldwide, from the US, Canada, China, the UK, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, and more. 

I’ve not only changed my life but transformed others’ lives—doing what I love from home or while traveling the world with my family.
 I saw the article the same day I graduated STAGE LEADERS (led by @jen_gottlieb ) in Orlando, where @kerrieleebrown , VP of SUCCESS Magazine , happened to be the guest speaker. What a full-circle moment!

“Success is the result of perseverance—failing over and over again without ever giving up.”
