Gaby loves how gymnastics challenges her! Floor is her favorite, but she enjoys pushing herself on all events. She even does conditioning at home to get stronger. Her gym is her happy place—it’s where she feels most proud, focused, and full of joy.
Gaby's idol is Simone biles! She watched her since she is 2 and she is definitely a role model. Her coaches: yanet, Sergio, Kim, angel and Shannon inspired her everyday at the gym!
Gaby makes me proud every single day with the passion she has for gymnastics. She knows how much her fundraiser helps, and she gives her all in and out of the gym. I’ll never forget when she fell on vault on states but got up with grace and finished strong—it showed her true spirit. And when she scored a 9.925 in Virginia, my heart nearly burst. Her love for the sport shines in everything she does.
