How did you get involved in gymnastics: My cousin took gymnastics for a little while when I was only 3 and I thought it would be fun to learn how to do flips and tricks too. I loved it from the minute I started and have loved it ever since!
Favorite thing about gymnastics: Gymnastics has taught me that you can give 110% & things donâ€™t always turn out how you planned. I have learned you have to make a choice-give up & walk away, or work even harder for what you want! Learning this has helped me in all areas of my life
What are your goals for gymnastics?: Continue training hard, remain injury free, & continually increase the difficulty of new skills. Qualify for Nationals and Nastia Liukin Cup again. Long term-compete at Div. 1 school on scholarship.

Interests Outside the Gym

Favorite school subject: Math and Science.
Hobbies or favorite activities: Cooking/baking, crafts, & puzzles. Warm weather & organizing!!! Anything that includes family I would consider one of my favorite activities!

Favorite book(s): Marley and Me
Favorite movie(s): Divergent
Favorite TV show(s): The Biggest Loser, America Ninja Warrior, and Master Chef
