So yah, my dance journey has been kind of insane. 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:10.039 I started when I was seven, and then me and 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:12.520 Ezure just kind of did it together and we've been 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:14.880 training in every cell and then I left my studio 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:17.720 when I was nineteen and started working professionally. But yeah, 0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:20.720 I'm training like basically everything. Yeah, like the ballroom, the 0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:24.200 hip hop, the jazz, contemporary, and yeah, I always knew 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:26.840 I wanted to be a professional dancer. So it's like 0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:29.120 so cool that I'm like finally like living out like 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:30.280 you know, living out that dream. 0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:31.040 Yeah. 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:33.720 No, okay, So at what point did you realize that 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.560 this could possibly turn into something bigger? It wasn't just 0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:38.600 like oh, this is like a fun hobby or an 0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:42.560 extracurricular activity. Like when did you have that realization, like, oh, 0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:44.880 I can actually make a career for myself. 0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:48.400 It's crazy because my dance studio, like so many amazing 0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:51.160 dancers came out of like that are like center stage 0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:53.800 performing arts. Yeah, and I think like around like thirteen, 0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:57.360 just seeing like Jenna and like Whitney Carson and like 0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:59.600 Derek and Julian just make a career for themselves, and 0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:01.840 I was like, wait, I'm from the same place as them, 0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:04.880 I'm getting the same training, Like I feel like I'm 0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:06.880 a little different Latina, Like I feel like I could 0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:08.760 do it. And I think ever since I was thirteen, 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:10.560 my dream was always to be on Dancing with the Stars. 0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:13.520 So I think ever since just training in Utah, I 0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:15.720 just was like dreaming of moving La and doing the 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:16.280 whole thing. 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.160 So yeah, amazing. 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:21.560 Okay, So how was growing up in Utah? Like, obviously 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:25.160 like your Latina and we know Utah is like, you know, 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:26.760 it's very conservative. 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:29.920 It's this you know, blanket. 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:32.880 Kind of image of like most people coming out of 0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:35.160 there like all look the same and they grow up Mormon, 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:38.040 Like I know, you guys grew up Mormon, and Ezra 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:39.239 talked about like leaving. 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:41.679 The church, et cetera. So like, how was that experience 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:42.440 for you guys? 0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:46.480 Yeah, it was definitely like hard, It was definitely I 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:49.760 think I handled it. I think me and ez are 0:02:49.840 --> 0:02:52.000 like really alchemized it. And I think we wouldn't have 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.040 been where we're at if we hadn't grown up in Utah. 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.200 Like I do look back and I'm like, I am 0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:58.400 grateful that I did grow up in that environment just 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.079 because it did make me who I am today. I 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:01.720 wouldn't be as strong. I feel like I wouldn't have 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:04.680 gone for my dreams. Like, but yeah, it was really hard, 0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.720 especially just growing up Mormon and you know, leaving the 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:09.800 church and everything. But I feel like I'm like the 0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.120 happiest I've ever been. So I'm just like so grateful. 0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:15.360 I mean, I can tell me every time I see you, 0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:17.920 I'm like, you're obviously like the most stunning person, but 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.800 I'm like, You're always glowing even more every time.
