If you know me, this dream has been on my heart for forever — but a dream like this was not achievable without the most incredible support system. This process has reminded me of all the amazing people God has placed in my corner. My village is special and I wouldn’t be who I am without them. Thank you to everyone who has poured into me and made me the dancer and person I am today, especially @jenniferamburn and @bethfagan . Thank you for my parents, family, friends, and everyone who has messaged me, believed in me, and prayed for me throughout these past months. Y’all’s support means the world🌎🤍.
Also, thank you to the DCC Staff for giving me this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Dancing next to people I aspired to be like has been surreal. Blessed to be apart of this organization, the incredible legacy it holds, and to have gained a sisterhood of a lifetime! I am forever grateful and don’t know if I will ever stop feeling like this is the greatest day of my life. Someone pinch me!!! Let the countdown to football season begin🥹🙏🏼⭐️💙
