I started gymnastics when I was 6 years old and competed TAAF through level 6. When I reached level 7, I changed gyms so that I could start competing USAG and challenge myself to excel in the sport. I love the challenge of learning new skills and pushing myself to be my very best. As a freshman in high school, I also started competing for our varsity gymnastics team. I train in the evening 6 days/24 hours a week at my club gym as well as every day with my school team, about 5-8 hours a week depending on where we are in the competition season. I love the comradery and support I have with both teams. They help me keep my motivation strong all year.
