Bio
Major/Minor: Pre-Physical Therapy
Future Goals: Become a Special Education Teacher/Therapist or Own an All Star Cheer Gym
Favorite part of being a Lope/Why did you chose GCU? My favorite part about being a Lope is we are all one big family. I chose GCU because it’s close to home and they have a cheer team that does both games and competitions.
What you love most about cheerleading? I love the challenge it gives me and how it allows me to push myself to get the skills I want.. I love competitions and getting to show off all the hard work I've done.
Hobbies and Interests: Cheer, Traveling, and anything athletic!
Role Model: Andrea Scialo for not only helping me become the athlete I am today but for teaching me life lessons and being the big sister I never had.
Favorite Bible Verse or Quote: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7
Fun Fact About Me: I am adopted. Â
