Hi Darlesha, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?

She is a staple in the Dallas dance community and other cities teaching classes giving knowledge about this artistic movement as well as choreographing and coaching. As well as photographer which has now evolved to creative directing videos and event coordinating .I strive to build community that when everyone comes to Dallas they know who we are. Now with the help my my manager Willie Johnson of J3 productions I strive to keep building my career as an actor, dancer, creative.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Definity has not been a smooth road but what road to success is every easy. Its how you react to every given situation because that very situation or problem only builds you to become more powerful in your craft in life.
