My name is Raven, and I'm a 25-year-old exotic dancer. Born and raised in Los Angeles, I've always had a passion for performing and expressing myself through dance. Growing up, I was constantly told that I was too shy to perform on stage, so this job has become my way of breaking free from all the doubts and limitations.

I remember when I first started dancing at 18 years old - I was fresh out of high school and trying to find my footing in life. My mom thought it was a phase I'd grow out of, but for me, it's been more than just a hobby or a job; it's an art form that lets me connect with people on a deeper level.

When I'm not dancing, you can catch me getting ready at home - I swear by silk stockings and the right shade of lipstick. People often say I have this melancholy vibe going on, but to be honest, it's just my way of dealing with life's hardships. But when I step onto that stage and get lost in music, all my worries disappear - for a little while at least.
