Hey Cowboys Fans,
I am humbled to have been selected to be a part of the best dance team in the NFL for a second year. My teammates are absolutely incredible humans and even better dancers, and I can't wait to share the stage with them.
I was born in Anchorage, Alaska and I moved around a bit as a military brat until secondary school. I graduated from the University of North Texas with my Bachelor of Arts in Integrative Studies focusing in Dance, Kinesiology and Anthropology. I currently work in the health & fitness industry, and I love that I'm able to help people get active after an injury.
I'm excited for that fun, fresh, game-day feeling and for the opportunity to bring smiles to the faces of Cowboys Nation.
See you out there,
Cheryl
