My favorite part about UK gymnastics is: the dedication the team
has to succeed.
My meet ritual is: listening to Johnny Cash and Brad Paisley
My most memorable gymnastics moment is: my last meet before college,
the 2006 Empire
State Games
The thing I would
most like to
accomplish as a
gymnast is: to
make the NCAA
Championships.
My most prized
possession is: My
pictures of my family and friends.
If I could visit anywhere in the world, it
would be: my grandpa’s camp with my
family because it’s fun and relaxing.
My advice to younger athletes is: never
regret something that once made you smile.
If I could name a Kentucky Derby horse, it
would be: Energizer Bunny, so it can keep
going and going and going.
