Favorite part of being a Lope/Why did you chose GCU? I look really good in purple. Also I really liked the campus and the environment of Grand Canyon, it had everything I was looking for.
What you love most about cheerleading? The team aspect and working with other people to build stunts and perform
Hobbies and Interests: Traveling and spending time in fellowship with my brothers and sisters in Christ
Role Model: Rika Cuff for showing me what a strong, respectable, and powerful woman who’s faith comes first looks like.
Favorite Bible Verse or Quote: “She is clothed in strength and dignity and she laughs without fear of the future” Proverbs 31:25
Fun Fact About Me: One of my favorite countries is Wales in the UK.
