>> WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, I -- IT WAS REWARDING TO BE ON THE STAGE AND TO BE IN FRONT OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AND, LIKE, I USED TO GET, LIKE, SO MUCH CONFIDENCE AND ENERGY FROM THAT AND MOST RECENTLY I FIND IT REWARDING, LIKE, TRANSFERRING ALL THAT TO MY STUDENTS.
THE SPARKLE THAT THEY HAVE IN THEIR EYE BEFORE THEY GO ON THE STAGE AND, LIKE, THE BUTTERFLIES THEY GET IN THEIR STOMACH IS WHAT I USED TO HAVE AS A KID, AND I'M JUST SO EXCITED THAT I'M ABLE TO PASS THAT ON TO THE NEXT GENERATION OF STUDENTS.
THE SORT OF EXPERIENCE THAT IS VERY UNIQUE AND NOT VERY COMMON IN COLUMBUS.
>> THIS IS THE HAT WE HAVE TO WEAR.
IT'S CALLED A SOMBRERO AND THEN A REBOZO THEN IF YOU WANTED, YOU COULD WEAR BRACELETS AND GOLD EARRINGS.
THE SUIT, I DON'T WHAT IT'S CALLED, AND THEN THE SKIRT AND THE SHOES.
WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BRING THE BRAIDS, LIKE THIS.
>> AS A SECOND GENERATION MEXICAN AMERICAN, YOU KNOW, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO CONNECT TO OUR CULTURES, MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T GET LOST.
SO IT'S ONE OF THE GREATEST WAYS TO DO THAT AND TO REALLY EDUCATE THE GREATER COMMUNITY ABOUT HOW DIVERSE AND UNIQUE EACH PART OF LATIN AMERICA IS.
>> IT'S DISCOVERING, WE'RE DISCOVERING IT.
MY MOM WANTS ME TO KEEP GOING DANCING AND GROW UP LIKE MS.
