I'm currently a student at the University of Georgia and love spending my extra time going to the gym and hanging out with my friends and family. I love fashion, music, and snowboarding as well!
I started dancing at the age of two and a half and spent my highschool years doing competitive dance until my sophomore year when I experienced a hip labral tear that caused me to no longer be able to compete. After over a year of physical therapy and realizing that my days of dance were over, I started to do cheerleading and soccer, which my hip was able to handle a lot better. While this all happened, I also transferred schools going from my sophomore to junior year. I transferred from a big public school to a small private school which was a big change for me that took a lot of adapting.
In the winter I always go snowboarding with my family while they ski. It’s one of my favorite yearly activities that I always look forward to. I love exercising and fitness because it gives me a breath of fresh air from daily life, which is why I also always try to incorporate the gym into my daily college life.
Now that I’m a college student, I spend a lot of my time studying and balancing my classes with my personal life. I’m currently trying to get ahead in my classes so my future college years have a more spread out load that will be easier for me to manage. I'm a Finance major and am excited to see where the business world will take me in the future.
