Home: After moving abroad, the hardest part about visiting home was leaving again. Each time my parents dropped me off at the airport, we hugged and cried as they sent me off to explore the world. This never got easier. No matter where I was living, what adventures I was taking, I knew how important it was to return to my family.
For Pole Sport Organization Great Lakes 2022, I tried my best to put that story to movement. I competed for the first time in Artistic Level 5 (a pro level and national qualifier) and walked away with a bronze medal. Thank you to my mom for being a part of this piece and helping it come to life. You made all the difference.
And thank you to my coaches and team at Ecole de Pole Cleveland for absolutely everything.
