BLACKPINK is in my area 😭 A dream of mine has always been to go on tour, and I am so excited to announce that I’ll be joining the BLACKPINK cast for their Encore Tour. I have no doubt that a lot of my previous work has lead me to this role and I am 100% grateful and blessed to be here. Currently in London and will be traveling to Paris next week. Like what. Is this real lol.
Huge shout out and thank you to my boy @bboynick90 for making this dream come true. I feel so in my element.
Life Update: I am now a studio manager! I was approached by @davidlimberlake about this new space he planned on opening up, and he specifically wanted me to fill this role. At first, I was thinking if I should do it because of jobs I wanted to do in the entertainment industry, but then I really stopped and thought about it… I’m usually the one that’s looking for jobs, but this time, the job found me. I’ve been involved with dance for over 10 years and I feel like a lot of what I’ve done previously in the community has built me up to this point. I accepted the position and I am so thankful I did.
Words are hard for me say out loud because feelings, but thank you SO much David for this opportunity. @jasminekei_ , even though we recently met, you said it best, this is the dream team and you’re killin it everyday as manager. So grateful for both of y’all!!
Be sure to follow @offstagebygrv (lowkey jealous that the account has more followers than me when I just created it 6 days ago lmao). Thank you to every student for supporting us, to the choreographers for joining us on this new chapter, to the staff/interns for making the vision come to life, and the community for making it all possible. This one is for y’all ♥️

That’s officially a wrap for Summer Jam 2026! I joined @jamrepublictheagency in 2023 as a dancer manager. For three years, I’ve been working with this team over WhatsApp and Zoom, but it wasn’t until last week did I get to finally meet (almost) everyone in person!
A lot of firsts for this trip. This is actually my first time seeing a camp of this scale be executed, and wow, I’m so inspired with who I surround my self with. First time in Vietnam, so I was immersed in the culture and got to see/meet dance communities from other countries. First time meeting a lot of new friends; Circles run deep, but everything felt so natural like I’ve known people for years.
When I was a young dancer, one of my dreams was to be able to travel for dance, and with this trip I’m reminded that I’m living the dream by doing what I love and helping others achieve their dreams too 😭
TE AMO, MEXICO CITYYY!! Constant laughing, bickering, roasting, and tacos. This trip was wild HAHAHA. To be able to travel the world with my best friends is such a blessing. LUH Y’ALL

HAPPY (super belated) BIRTHDAY @DEVINPORNEL !
We went to Aspen three weeks ago and I’m still playing catch up with social media.
Being surrounded by snow with the people I love is a whole vibe 🥶
HAPPY HOLIDAYS. MEWWY CHRISTMAS. MELE KALIKIMAKA. Not gonna lie, I had an insane two weeks. From moving apartments to across the street, to saying goodbye to my mentor, to going to Hawaii and seeing friends and eating good food, to holidays with the fam. There’s so much life happening and so much I want to say, but the main thing I want to share is my gratitude for everyone! LET’S KEEP IT GOING FOR 2026
November doesn’t deserve to be a “dump” post but I can’t keep up. What a crazy wild month. I feel like I always say this, but quality time with quality people. This is all I want and it’s all I’m getting. Grateful for everyone and the mems made.
Rest in Peace to Anna Sarao.
This one hurts. Like a lot. I still cant believe it.
In 2010 I was a volunteer for Body Rock Dance Competition, and what a year it was to be so inspired by dance. In 2011, I wanted to throw my own competition for the junior dance community, but plans fell through, so I messaged Anna Sarao about working together for Body Rock Junior, and the rest is history. I was under her wing as the show’s producer from 2012 to about 2021. In that time, I graduated high school, graduated college, moved to LA/OC, so she saw me grow up.
One thing that we both had in common is that we had a passion for bringing people together through art and live entertainment.
The last time I saw her was at Body Rock Junior 2025 and I gave her flowers. Fast forward 4 months, I can’t believe I’ll be giving her flowers one last time.
She was hard on me, she challenged me, she made me think about my emotions even though I hated talking about it, but it’s because she was my older sister. She did everything out of love. She wanted what’s best for me. She had so much wisdom to share.
I would not be where I am today if it wasn’t for Anna. People keep telling me how proud she was of me, but I’m hurting, man. I should have been there more for her.
Anna, please know that the impact you’ve made on me and so many other people will live on forever. You’re truly a legacy.
Thank you.
