Can you tell us a little bit about how you got into dance, and how that turned into a career as a reporter? It's kind of a funny story. I mean, I think like a lot of young boys and girls I was in dance class growing up. I did work professionally as a kid and went to NYU and got my degree in dance. After I graduated I found myself a little burnt out and thinking, what am I going to do next? Because I didn't want to choreograph, or teach, or open a studio and I kind of found a way to take my love of writing and research, I was someone who really loves school, and still take my love of dance and put the two of them together and become a dance journalist. With the explosion of dance in TV and film, it's been the best gift to me because it's my passion, but at the same time I still get to stay in the whole genre without completely leaving it. At what point did you branch out into influencer marketing? I think what's been really interesting, I think for sure social media kind of made me think of different ways to try and communicate with people, ways to spread my message. I think that with each new platform that sort of comes our way you have to think outside the box, and be really creative with things like that, and because I cover all of the TV dance shows, a lot of times I get a little spoiler, or a little inside scoop, and I've done even small things of like here's your 62nd dance scoop, here's what's happening. That gets people excited about my message. You can do the same exact thing when it comes to brands and sort of integrating that. I always try and look for things that kind of fit into dance, fitness, movement, healthy lifestyle. For me and my audience, it works really well.
