I aspire to enjoy life, have fun, and connect with people. I have found that the easiest way to do this is through a sport you truly love. I have always been an athlete, from the first time I could remember I was doing something; from soccer, football, softball, to track. I really enjoy the competition. But this year's dive season really hit me, I am not ready to be done, I have just begun to hit my peak and I am not ready to give up on diving yet. The difference between myself and other recruits is I am fresh, I may not have all the knowledge and skill yet but I can change at the drop of a dime. I am coachable and changeable. Secondly, I have a determined... I know that I may not be the best in the state, but I promise you... I am willing to put in all the work and more to compete against those top girls. And lastly, I am fearless. This is a sport that is revolved around fear, and simply I do not have time for it to infer with my progress. I did not grow up a gymnast or a diver, so I have had to be not only a workhorse but also had to be brave and resilient even when fear is creeping into my mind. I am ready to take the next step in the diving world.
