On most days, you can find me playing tennis, but I also enjoy cozying up with a good book. My favorite things are Taylor Swift, Pinterest, coffee shops and chilly fall days. My plan for the future is to study sports medicine and to buy my dream car, a black Porsche.

After being a part of the Livewire staff last school year, I decided to join Mountain Echo for my freshman year. Outside of school I enjoy doing competitive weightlifting and spending time with my friends. I have been lifting for three years now and have competed in many national competitions all across the U.S. My future plans are to go to Penn State and become a physical therapist.
