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

I love the flexibility gymnastics gives me and all the amazing routines gymnast perform. The back hand springs, the flipping, the tumbling, floors, bars and beams, etc. And love practicing them daily. I'm a team player and a goal getter, I love the feelings of competition as I strive in achieving excellence.


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

I'm motivated and inspired by Simone Biles, who has seven gold and eleven Olympic medals. By record, she is the most world championship with 30 medals. Off the field, my father inspires me with constantly praying for my success.


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

My proudest moments are the dedication I see in myself on daily basis practicing my gymnastic routines to become the best worldwide and beat the current records. There have been several proud moments, one of which was when I was five years old and went for a meet competition, won a gold medal on a 200 meters race, representing DC Track and Field. At different times, I won different medals for both Track and Field and Soccer, respectively.
