“I've always been a fan of Dancing with the Stars. I used to watch it when I was so young with my grandma, and she would always say to me, ‘Look, you know, maybe one day you'll be on there’ I was so in love with dance, and when this opportunity came to me, it swas like what can I do next? Like, where can I take this? And I'm ready to challenge myself. I think it's going to be a lot of fun."
