Hey Cowboys Fans!
I'm absolutely thrilled to kick off my second year with THE best team in the NFL, especially alongside the incredibly talented folks of the Dallas Cowboys Rhythm and Blue Dance Team and Drumline!
I'm a Dallas native who kicked off my performance journey on the step team back in elementary school. My dance journey really took flight when I joined the drill team as a high school freshman. From there, I danced my way through Texas Woman's University as a dance major and a member of the Pioneer Pride Dance Team and continued my dance studies at Grambling State University with the Orchesis Dance Company. These days, I'm teaching dance and fitness classes all over the DFW area, aiming to become a full-time dancer and dance teacher while also diving into content creation.
I'm beyond grateful for the chance to be part of this fantastic organization and can't wait for another season filled with growth, laughter, dance, and connecting with all you amazing Cowboys fans!
Let's go Cowboys!

Number of years on the team: This is my second season as a DCR&B dancer.
Prior Dance/Entertainment Industry Experience: I started out on the step team in elementary and middle school and didn't begin dancing until high school, when I joined the drill team. There, I served as the youngest officer my sophomore year and as captain my senior year. I continued my dance journey with the Pioneer Pride Dance Team at Texas Woman's University and the Orchesis Dance Company at Grambling State University. Additionally, I've danced backup for the R&B group H-Town and other local Dallas artists.
Nicknames: Chare (pronounced chair)
Hometown: Dallas, Tx
I dance because: It's my expression, the way I can speak best without words. I've always been the shy girl who felt overlooked and like her voice didn't matter. But the first time I stepped foot on a stage in 4th grade, I finally felt what it was like to feel powerful, and fearless. And from then on, I knew dance was what I needed to do.
What I like to do most besides dance is: I love watching podcasts, studying my Bible, and going to the gym.
I've always wanted to: Bungee jump!
Advice to Youngsters: Do not compare yourself to the people around you. God created YOU for a reason and God never makes mistakes. So, you are perfect just the way you are!
My biggest role model is: My mom. She inspires me every single day.
What I enjoy most about being a DCRB Dancer is: Being surrounded by such talented, like-minded people who are all full of positivity. Dance is not always easy but some of the load is taken off when you have great people around you.
Favorite Cowboys player past or present: Ceedee Lamb
Favorite Performer: Beyoncé, Janet Jackson, Micheal Jackson, Chris Brown.
Favorite Music: Anything I can dance to honestly. I've been listening to a lot of late 90s early 2000's hip hop and R&B lately.
