Her first salsa and bachata lessons began in the kitchen of her Abuela’s house, where she was instilled with the importance of learning culture and history as keys to learning a dance. As she grew her passion for love and dance grew as well. In 2014 she joined Alma Detroit Salsa & Bachata teams, where she studied under Marc Brewer and Kiri Chapman.
