I have been dancing for as long as I can remember. From “mommy and me” classes as a little girl to the moment I first stepped onto a competition stage, dance has always been where I feel most like myself. It has shaped who I am, teaching me discipline, resilience, teamwork, and passion. I truly cannot imagine my life without it. In high school, I earned a spot on the Varsity Pomline at Perry High School, where I had the privilege of spending four years performing and competing alongside an incredible team. During that time, we won two state championships and medaled nationally multiple times. I was also honored to be part of a Worlds team, the Arizona ACES, which earned over five World Championship titles. Personally, I was incredibly grateful to receive the All-American Award twice, which meant so much to me as a recognition of the dedication and love I have for this sport.
Every step of my journey has led me to the University of Arizona. I attended my first clinic in McKale as a sophomore and continued to attend clinics and auditions throughout high school, each time leaving even more inspired and motivated. The program, the energy, and the sense of family made a lasting impression on me. Dance has always been my home, and I truly could not imagine my life without it.
A fun fact about me is I tested positive for being Gifted and Talented in second grade!
