Skai Jackson has been in the spotlight since she was very young, which means we’ve watched her grow up on the small screen. While the 18-year-old is well known for her roles on Disney Channel‘s Jessie and Bunk’d, she actually got her start as a model before making her onscreen debut in the film Liberty Kid in 2007. Since then, we’ve watched her go from adorable child star to a powerhouse actress, activist, and author. Now, she’s taking on her next venture with her appearance on Dancing With the Stars season 29. As you cheer for “Team Reach For the Skai,” check out her stunning evolution ahead.
