2024 Dancing Stars of Atlanta

I am the co-Owner of Flirt Prom & Pageant, which is one of the largest formal wear stores in the United States. In 2021, Flirt was named as one of the Top 10 Best Dress Store’s in the United States by The Pageant Planet out of over 1,000 boutiques. My wife and I started our business with $1,000.00 and 6 dresses, selling them out of my now mother-in-laws dining room. From March 2018 to today, Flirt has grown to selling over 10,000 dresses, with dresses gracing some of the biggest stages in the world including Miss Universe. My involvement with the organization began with D’Anne Heckert & 2023 Star Dancer, Meredith Pope. Coming in as a Platinum Sponsor in 2022, I saw first-hand the passion of the Atlanta Chapter in fundraising for a cure. I’m dancing in honor of my great-grandfather, Wansley Watson, who lost his battle to Alzheimer’s in 2022, my grandfather who is currently battling Aphasia, which is a type of frontotemporal dementia, and Martha Hartleb, who is a long-time family friend currently battling Alzheimer’s in a memory care facility. My wife and I look forward to continuing the fight for a cure alongside the Atlanta Chapter every year, and I am honored to have been chosen as a Star Dancer for 2024.
