I grew up in Nashville, TN where my athletic career started at the age of four. I spent a short time in gymnastics before transferring to mixed martial arts. After earning my second-degree black belt in Kenpo, I found a passion for figure skating. With long days on the ice and cross-training off the ice with ballet, flexibility, conditioning, pilates, hot yoga, and more I fell in love with fitness and performance. Also being a coach, it was amazing to help others strengthen their bodies and minds to achieve anything.
I pursued my education at the University of Michigan where I earned multiple national medals while skating for them and graduated with a Bachelor's of Science in Movement Science and Kinesiology. After graduation, I joined Disney on Ice, which is where my professional show career began. Circus crossed my path shortly after and I instantly fell in love with its ingenuity and beauty. My main disciplines are contortion, aerial silks, and aerial hoop, but I absolutely love learning so there will be more to come!
