I am a former semi-professional ballet dancer who has a passion for all things sports. I truly believe in blending the elegance of ballet with the excitement and intensity of team sports, and I view both disciplines as powerful vehicles for personal growth and mental agility.
Throughout my journey, I have been convinced that engaging in athletic activities fosters not only physical strength but also resilience, teamwork, and a sense of belonging. My experience as a guidance counselor has given me a unique perspective on the importance of mental health and well-being, and I strive to help individuals recognize the invaluable life skills that come from being part of a team.

I hold a BA in History from Wayne State University, which has equipped me with critical thinking skills and a broader understanding of the world. Being a dedicated Detroit Tigers fan adds another layer to my life; there’s something special about the thrill of the game that resonates deeply with me.
