DanceMachine Crew and iDanceMachine Administrators

i like to think of myself as the hipster ninja here to entertain, touch souls and make a positive and fun experience for the world, my friends and family. Born and raised in Cali, fell in love twice in college, heartbroken and now working in New York.

Have been homeless, broke, beaten up; but at the same time, got straight a's, was homecoming king of my high school, did genetics research in hopes to cure alzheimer's, was in a fraternity and was treasurer of my university's greek system.

I am half Filipino (mom) and half Indian (dad), 100 percent American Thespian. Cheers!
