I am currently a senior at Charleston’s School for the Arts with a 4.8 GPA enrolled in honors and dual credit classes. I began gymnastics at Gymnastics Academy of Charleston at 5 years old. Over the years in gymnastics I have learned many life skills including perseverance, time management, work ethic, responsibility, and how to be a supportive team member. During my gymnastics career I have been a regional qualifier in levels 8, 9 and 10. I was Level 8 South Carolina state champion in Beam and Level 9 South Carolina state champion in Vault. The 2025-2026 season will be my third season competing level 10. I am eager to accomplish new goals and have dreams of being a collegiate gymnast.
