I grew up in Raleigh, North Carolina. My hometown is simple and cozy with the city not too far down the road. My parents both had significant influences on me growing up. They were constant motivators and supporters for all the endeavors I wished to pursue. At an early age, they both instilled in me the concepts of hard work and always doing the right thing no matter the situation. I was taught that the work you put in determines your success and that if you commit to something/become a part of something then you should be giving it 110%.
I went to college at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte where I was a member of the Charlotte softball team and received a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. Most of my time in college was split between academics & athletics. Outside of those two things I spent time with friends, going to sporting events, and exploring Uptown Charlotte.
