My Journey
I decided to go back to school after 15 years to complete my degree while trying to encourage my youngest son to complete his 12 grade year after the pandemic and decided to take a few classes that turned into me continuing my desire to complete my college degree after my son graduated high school.

Why Did You Choose To Major In INDS?
Choosing a multidisciplinary Bachelor of Arts degree with a focus in Dance, Afro-Latin Studies, and Business Management perfectly aligns with both my personal passions and professional aspirations by deepening connections to dance and its cultural significance, through my desire to preserve and promote Afro-Latin dance traditions, through my commitment to empowering others through dance education and cultural exchange and through my inspiration from personal heritage and experiences in the dance community.
