How do you spend your time outside of Gold Rush?
Outside of my full-time job and Gold Rush, I honestly spend most of my free time with my teammates. There's always someone who's down to go for a walk, meet up to practice choreo, take our favorite Hot HIIT class, or grab a bite to eat.
What are you passionate about?
I'm passionate about Psychology, and in particular, understanding the minds of the people in my life!

I'm originally from Orange County, CA! During my second season, I moved to San Francisco to immerse myself in the team experience.
What professional accomplishment are you most proud of?
The professional accomplishment I am most proud of is passing the CPA exams! It took more discipline than I sometimes felt capable of, but I was so proud and mostly relieved to see my final passing score.
Who or what inspires you?My friends inspire me. I wish I could even articulate how grateful I am to have them, but they mean the world to me.
What is your favorite memory at Levi's Stadium?
Watching the Niners come back from a 17-point deficit at half, to win the NFC Championship!!!

Being a Gold Rush Cheerleader means pursuing what I love while being surrounded by incredible teammates, led by encouraging coaches, taught by inspiring choreographers, and cheered on by the most faithful fans in the NFL.
Who is YOUR biggest cheerleader?
My biggest cheerleaders are my parents, who support me endlessly, and love me unconditionally in everything I do.
Tell us about your journey of becoming a Gold Rush cheerleader.
No matter how much preparation you put in before a professional audition, there will always be more talented and capable candidates in finals than simply the number who make the roster. For that reason, making the cut can sometimes feel like you were simply in the right place at the right time. However, I have always felt like Gold Rush chose me for me from the beginning. Yes, I did come as prepared as I could possibly be, but ever since joining this team I have always felt like this was the home I was meant to end up in.
