I would change the fact that I didn't jump my best at the 2014 State Finals and finished fifth. That was a disappointment.
 
What was the most difficult obstacles you had to overcome?
 
Definitely the weather at the 2013 state meet. It was like a tropical storm and was quite the challenge to jump in.

I will miss my coaches (Coach Wright and Coach Plumadore) they were always supportive and guided me the right direction on and off the track.
 
What advice would you give to younger athletes?

Who would you like to say thank you to?
 
I would like to give thanks to my family who in all my years of middle and high school athletics have never missed a track, basketball or football game I have competed in. They have supported all that I have done and I couldn't have achieved what I did without them. Also, I would thank my coaches who I was blessed to have and were a huge impact on who I am today.
