Her website states:

"Being a professional dancer has always been my dream. One of my biggest goals when I was young was to be part of So You Think You Can Dance Canada. I knew the odds of making it were slim, bring from a small town."

Janick knew she had to make “big moves” and always kept her goals in mind. After finishing high school, she moved to Montreal, leaving behind her friends and family to pursue her career as a professional dancer.

The Dance 100 dancer previously appeared as a dancer in The Micheal Jackson:The Experience video game and as an assistant during Micheal Jackson The Immortal Tour with Cirque du Soleil, which was choreographed by NappyTabs.

"I am now living in Los Angeles and accomplished my biggest goal yet. I am dancing with Jennifer Lopez in her three year residency show in Las Vegas at the Axis theatre in Planet Hollywood as my first job in the USA."

Celebrities she’s previously danced with include CeeLo Green, Def Leppard, Melissa Etheridge, Kelly Clarkson, Marie-Mai, and more.

The Dance 100 contestant appeared in JLo’s Ain’t Your Mama, Dinero, El Anillo, and Limitless and was seen dancing with Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson during the MTV Movie Awards and with Hailee Steinfeld at the RDMAs and with Rihanna at the VMAs.

Her bio states:

"Even though I have accomplished so many of my dreams, my goals do not stop there. I believe that as a dancer and as a person, we always have more that we can learn and achieve, and one should never settle. If you can dream it, then it can become a reality."

She is now set to compete on Netflix’s Dance 100 which is set to premiere on Friday, March 17, at 3:01 am ET on the streaming platform.
