Hip Hop Joe!

Live for the moment, have no regrets and only look towards the future. Hip Hop dancer for life!

About Me

I love life. I love to be outside. I love anything physical. I love working on cars. I love Harleys. I love the Yankees. I one day hope to live in South Africa. I want to travel the world. I want to hike Mount Everest. I hope to open a shelter for homeless youth. Currently I am a student at Red Rocks Community College working on degrees in Criminal Justice and Psychology or Theatre. I would love to major in criminology with a minor in urban studies. I want to get a masters in sexology and a PhD in erotology. Eventually I would like to get my doctorate in cultural anthropology. I have been an actor since I was six. I have done both stage and film work. I've auditioned for stuff in LA and I've also auditioned to be on the reality show Big Brother as well as Jeopardy. I've also auditioned to be a dancer for Ciara. I am also a writer. I have had a short story published, some plays produced and a few screenplays produced. I'm also on IMDB www.imdb.com/name/nm2063780/ check it out! I hope that I get more credits up there soon. I love traveling, I have been to Hawaii, Washington DC and Germany. I loved Europe and it is my dream to backpack across it someday. My true passion is hip hop dancing. I danced with Storm out of Motion Underground before joining their EOM team. I also train at Centerstage Starz Theatre and Dance Studio and Streetside Dance Studio. Before hip hop dancing, I was a Middle Eastern Belly Dancer. I also took tap, modern and jazz. I work at Best Buy part time in their warehouse and I also work for the Crisis Company where I help train cops in crisis intervention. It's a great job and it feels great to be able to use my acting talents to help people. I've had some pretty interesting jobs besides that. I've worked for a while as a reviewer for porn for an adult website, I've worked in a Halloween store and I'm also a volunteer for Colorado OUTSpoken, the only GLBT news station in Colorado. Want to know anything else about me? Just ask. I'm pretty much an open book.
