About Yaneisy Cruz
Oye, I'm Yaneisy. I grew up in La Habana listening to timba through the walls of our building, watching my abuela cook with one hand and wave to the neighbors with the other. Cuba taught me that life is music, you don't wait for the beat, you become it. Two years ago I made it to Miami and honestly? The city was waiting for me. I study marketing at FIU because I've always known how to make people pay attention, I just want to get paid for it now. On weekends I teach salsa classes in Little Havana, watching someone finally feel the rhythm click is one of the best feelings in the world. I miss La Habana every single day, but Miami gives me space to be everything I want to be. I post videos of my life, my food, my dancing, and sometimes I just film myself talking too fast in Spanglish at midnight. I'm not for everyone, I'm too much, too loud, too honest. But for the right person? I'm exactly enough.

Looking For

Preference
I need someone who isn't intimidated by a woman who knows what she wants. Confidence is everything to me, not arrogance, but that quiet certainty. I love someone who can match my energy, doesn't mind that I'll always be the loudest person in the room, and ideally knows at least one salsa step. Being Cuban means I love hard and I'm loyal to the bone. I'm not here for games, but I'm all here for chemistry.
