About

I graduated from Chaska High School with high honors in 2015. I continued my education at Minnesota State University Mankato to pursue a major in Exercise Science. In college not only did I continue my passion for education, but I also continued my love for dance. I have been dancing since I was three and have won numerous titles. In my high school career, my team took three State Champion titles and I personally won two All Conference and one All Tournament title. In the first year of my college dance career, my team took the UDA National Champion title and I can't wait to see where MNSU Mankato takes me.

Goals and interests

Career goal

In my future I would like to use the knowledge I gain about the human body to help improve the performance of athletes. After graduating with a degree in Exercise Science at MNSU Mankato I plan on attending Graduate School (undecided about the university) to further my studies. Once my degrees are all said and done, the goal is to do research to help improve the ability of athletes. I am passionate about health and fitness and am looking to see what I can do to improve the way our bodies work in more than just the everyday routine, but within high performance athletes.

Outside the classroom

Dance is a big passion of mine and I have spent a great deal of my life dedicated to it. I also enjoy doing all things that keep me engaged and active like weight lifting, hiking, and swimming. In addition to those I also balance two vigorous jobs.
