In the year of 2020, I was involved in an accident that left my leg with 3rd degree burns. As a result, I received a full skin graft surgery. Despite the challenges I pushed myself and found a passion for running and weightlifting, the same year I was awarded All-Conference Best Cheerleader. In addition, I was sideline as well as competition season captain my junior and senior year. Since 2019 (freshman year) my team and I have beaten countless school records solely because of our grit and passion for this sport. As an athlete I view adversity as a tool for growth as well as a opportunity.
