Young Creative, DeAndre “Yummy” Brown of Miami, FL has translated his joy of dance into a storied career that has stretched 15+ years. Now based in the Tampa Bay area, Brown’s mastery of Ballet, Modern, Jazz, Lyrical, Vogue, Hip-Hop and other forms of dance were cultivated as a student at institutions such as “The University of the Arts.” Cultural-based training in churches and organizations like Hype Elite, YCDT with Traci Young-Byron, Iconic House of Ninja and Iconic House of Prodigy only served to enrich his style, versatility and range.

In the next ascention of DeAndre’s dance life, he stepped into his most recent form of artistry within the Black Queer Ballroom scene. Ballroom historically has been the merger of dance, theatrics, design and protest to provide platform and expression for the Black and Brown Queer Community. With the emergence and popularity of shows like FX’s Pose and Legendary on HBO Max, Ballroom has reached a peak of wider acceptance and celebration as an artform.

Brown’s passion for showcasing his art and educating at a worldwide level just fuels his quest for bigger and more transformative stages. Training in various art forms and experiencing countless cultures through dance has served to develop not only the depth of his personality and way of life but his iconic movement and choreography.”
