About Me

Filipino, Chinese, and Spanish. Born and raised in Seattle, I'm a Leo, made the most of Seattle while I was here. I was a concierge at the Washington State Convention Center during the day and a professional HipHop dancer at night. No, I don't strip or go-go dance. Some of the experiences on my resume include dancing for the NBA for three years - SuperSonics, KUBE 93 Summerjam Concerts out at the Gorge, a guest performer with Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre, dance captain & choreographer for Team Boogiezone.com - Breed, and represented one of Seattle's fiercest crews, Twisted Elegance (pictured in my profile). Currently, I'm dancing for Norwegian Cruise Lines as a production show dancer. This is the kinda stuff that I never thought I'd ever see myself doing. Jazz, Broadway theatre kinda stuff, tap?!, and some cheesy HipHop made up by some crackhead white girl of a choreographer. I've learned to really love the Broadway Revue Show... And the costumes?! Can we just say *SPARKLE!* Yikes. We're also doing a Native American piece which is HOT. And I'm also dressed chinky for an immigrant piece. But you know what the best part is about dancing on a cruiseline? Seeing the natural beauty of Alaska in the summer, being on the East Coast for the first time experiencing New York on Sundays, the hottness of Miami, being a kid again at DisneyWorld; KICKIN it in Acapulco and Ensenada (with TEQUILA!), laying on a beach in Carribbean, sitting to a ukelele being played on the beach in Hawaii, and now I get to see the rest of the world. Europe, Africa, South America, and even Antarctica! Now how many people can say they been to there? I also plan on backpacking through Europe for three weeks. I wish I were dancing for locals rather than these old passengers. Freestyle-wise on the dancefloor, I lean more towards Deep House, Breakbeat, and Funk. I'm still looking to move to either Cali or NYC (or both) to see what I can really do.....to be continued. I'm a deep, soul-searchin' brotha who might emulate emotional depth and self expression through words and body movement (on the very rare occasions when it wants to come out)....but to be able to do both at the same time would be an interesting venture. Other times, I'm seen as the life of the party or the club, as long as there is some good ass downe and dirtay, funkay groove goin' down. But, being the center of attention all the time isn't all that it is cracked up to be, which you realize as you get older and wiser. Perhaps it'll be put to good use later in life. Check out a couple of my 'Soulchild Session' dance articles on www.boogiezone.com.
