Miami Living: Can you tell us about any specific challenges on the show, and how you overcame them? My biggest challenge was feeling like my entire life was going to be documented. That was very hard for me at first because I’m a super private person, but after a while you forget they’re on. Miami Living: What has been your most memorable experience on the show? How do you feel playing such a vital role on “Playground” has improved your skills within your career? Most memorable moment was for sure the Meg Thee Stallion episode. It was so incredible that she was down to be a producer and support us on the show. Miami Living: Growing up in Miami, how did the city influence and inspire your dancing? CULTURE! Culture, culture, culture! Nobody has the sauce like Miami does. Miami is the reason I am the performer I am today. It also gave me the fight and spice to not let anybody take advantage of you. Miami Living: Do you feel beginning your dancing career in a big city like Miami affected the success you have today? Absolutely, imagine If I was born literally ANYWHERE else?! Miami Living: As a Miami native, what are your favorite local spots? Pollo Tropical, and I will die on that hill haha! Miami Living: What do you see in store for your future? Do you have any major goals you intend to accomplish? Does Miami play any part in these plans? I would love to get back to NYC and choreograph a Broadway show. You can watch “Playground” on Hulu, and continue to watch Dexter’s journey unfold by following him on Instagram @dextercarr.
