Growing up I was always influenced by sports. I grew up in a small town and started wrestling in 7th grade when I joined my middle school boys team. Since then I have always been the only girl on the team and I've always been treated just like everyone else, pushed just as hard as the boys, and never seen as any different from them. I've grown a love for the sport and wish to continue it through college and possibly further. In college I hope to study psychology and forensics. In and out of my college experience I want to know I bettered myself mentally and physically, make new friends, and experience new things with my future team mates.
