A lot of people watching my videos don't know my story... I was born blind in my right eye. In December of 2010, due to spikes in eye pressure, glaucoma, and abnormal blood vessels growing in my eye, I had my right eye removed. The first month was difficult but now I am 100 % better. My prosthetic looks great and I've been dancing better than ever :)

I put together this video for a big opportunity to go to LA. After the year I have had, it would mean SO MUCH to me to get the chance to train with the best choreographers out there.
