Earning a 3rd Place Armed Overall win at Nationals was a defining moment in my journey. This page recounts the preparation leading up to that day, and the hundreds of hours of practice, the focus on minute details, and the resilience required to stand among the best in the nation.
Success isn't limited to the competition floor; it also manifests in the classroom and the studio. Here, I document the awards, dean's list placements, and artistic recognitions I have received. Each honor represents a commitment to maintaining a high standard of work across all disciplines.
