Are you a visible minority who struggles with your voice in the entertainment industry? Are you a dancer who loves to create and wants to transition into choreographing? Or did you work on a Film or TV Show last year and looking for ways to build longevity within the commercial world? 

This week, we sat down with Amanda-May Wilson. She is a professional dancer and aspiring choreographer, born and raised in Toronto, Canada. After being self-taught for many years, she began her formal dance training at 14 years old, studying hip hop, jazz, contemporary and musical theatre through several collectives, companies and troupes. Through achievements such as The Pulse On Tour's Elite Protege Scholarship and The Monsters of Hip Hop Show, she has trained and worked closely with global industry heavy-hitters such as Brian Friedman, Gil Duldulao, JaQuel Knight & Parris Goebel, to name a few.

You can see Amanda-May onscreen in Full Out (Family Channel/Netflix), Heartbeats (Myriad Pictures/Das Films), Disney's Zombies (Disney) & The Next Step (Family Channel/Disney). She's worked with artists such as Deborah Cox, Janet Jackson, and Agnez Mo, as well as major brands, Nike and Roots. You can catch her choreographic works in Make It Pop (Nickelodeon), Firefly (TIFF), and Utopia Falls (Hulu), Amanda- May is looking forward to continued growth in her craft and what she prays will be a career of longevity in dance.
