I was a cheerleader at Arizona State University football and basketball games and a dancer for arena football league, I'm now a teacher (some of my former students from East Bay Innovation Academy go to OSA)
It allowed me to take a deeper dive into dance, and other arts, and opened my eyes to new experiences.
It wasn't until I left the state that I noticed the cultural influence that Oakland and the bay area has on the country (music, language, etc). I'm proud to be from the bay area and will continue to defend it.
Mr. Savage, he was the first person to push me and to make me work hard. I still carry his lessons and wisdom to this day.
