What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

She loves karate because it’s where pain becomes power. Despite a pulled hamstring, Osgood-Schlatter disease, and hip dysplasia, she trains six days a week—turning struggle into strength. Every kata, every sparring match is a battle she chooses. Karate isn’t just movement—it’s resilience, discipline, and heart. It’s her proving ground, her passion, her way of life. What she loves most? Becoming stronger than what tried to break her.

Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

God gives her strength, her daddy gives her drive, and Avery Presley shows her what’s possible through courage and grit. But most of all, she’s inspired by the young girls watching her—dreaming, hoping, becoming. Their eyes remind her to never quit. She fights for them, for Him, and for the belief that with faith, heart, and hard work, anything is possible. Her journey is theirs—and she’s proud to lead the way.

What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

What makes me proudest isn’t the medals or perfect katas—it’s her heart. Watching her push through pain, rise after setbacks, and train with unwavering grit humbles me. She honors God, inspires little girls, and leads with quiet strength. Even when it hurts, she shows up. Her courage, faith, and fire make her a warrior—and as her father, there’s nothing greater than seeing her become everything she was born to be.
