Other than your family, who is a positive role model in your life: My dance teacher, Tammy; she has helped me become not only the dancer I am today, but the person I am. She has taught me the value of hard work, dedication and the true meaning of the term "full out." Tammy saw the potential in me, always pushed me to be better and always encouraged me to follow my dreams. I can't thank her enough!
