Kiersten loves that everybody gets along and supports each other. She loves that it challenges her to push herself harder in all aspects of life.
Alix Ward (Beattie) inspires her. She is a fellow teammate who has a graceful intensity that is inspiring. Alix is always cheering on and supporting her teammates and helping with a combo or trick.
Two years ago, Kiersten discovered that she would barely make the age cut for the US National Team for the 2025 World Championships in Japan. She worked endlessly for the two years and qualified in 7 events. Because of her hard work, she will get to compete with other elite athletes from all over the world this summer.
