Early life

Sandoval was born in Roseville, California. When he was two, he was adopted by his step-father Conrad Pete Sandoval. Unfortunately, the documents were mixed up and he became Conrad Pete Dominic Sandoval. He legally changed it when he was 16, as he explains his YouTube video called "10 Things You Never Knew About Me."He began breakdancing at age 13 and has performed at NBA and WNBA games, as well as won the 2005 "Evolution 2" competition held in Orlando, Florida with his breaking crew, Flexible Flav. Three months before the Los Angeles auditions, in order to prepare, Sandoval took hip-hop and choreography classes. He lists Ivan "The Urban Action Figure"—who has appeared on America's Got Talent—as his favorite professional dancer. Sandoval aspires to learn all styles and genres of dance and to be known as a dancer, rather than just a breaker. Sandoval is a member of Quest Crew and former member of Fallen Kingz, along with long time friend and former YouTube personality and Quest Crew member, Victor Kim.
