Gymnastics experience: I started gymnastics at 5 doing recreational classes before moving to a Star League Single A group. From there I was invited to do the Rec-op program and then pulled to do the Junior Olympic program where I competed through level 7.

What do you like most about working at SGA? When I first started coaching at SGA I loved that it was a way for me to stay connected to the sport of gymnastics, but as I gained experience I realized how much I genuinely love working with athletes. Helping them achieve their goals while making the process fun and watching them gain confidence in themselves is something I am proud to be a part of!
