Meet Takiyah, a vibrant and energetic 17-year-old with a passion for dancing and big dreams of seeing the world—starting with New York City!

Takiyah lights up when she talks about the city’s towering buildings, bustling streets, and the magical Christmas tree in Times Square—her dream destination, especially during her favorite holiday.

In her free time, Takiyah enjoys dancing (especially hip-hop), listening to music, spending time with friends, and going shopping. She dreams of becoming a dance teacher one day, sharing her love for movement and rhythm with others.

Takiyah is ready to shine in a nurturing, calm, and structured home where she can feel supported and encouraged to chase her goals. With the right family beside her, there’s no doubt Takiyah will dance her way into a bright and beautiful future.
