About Me

Hi there! I am a current student at Colorado State University studying International Studies and French. I have been a student manager at the CSU Rec Center for over 3 years and I am also Director of the boy's gymnastics program at a local gymnastics school. I also announce occasional gymnastics meets for USA Gymnastics. I was a gymnast for about 12 years along would dabbling in almost every other sport I could. Eventually, I want to work to help organize the Olympic Games as well as other subsets of International Sporting Games. I love the outdoors and trying new things. I love Tough Mudder Runs! I have a 270+ item bucket list that I am slowly working my way through. I hate sleep, floating in the ocean by myself, and phone scams. I get sad when I go into big libraries and when I think about how big the world is because I know I will never be able to read all the book or meet all the people...

Teach, Learn, Share

Conflict resolution advice: When approaching a conflict with another person, shift the dynamic of the situation so that while you speak, your words reflect the idea that the conflict is not between you VS them, but rather you AND them vs the problem at hand.

Love this quote! "The limits on human achievement are always self imposed and require not a shift in goals, but rather a shift in attitude and mindset to achieve more than the goals originally established." -Anon

What I Can Share with Hosts

Wonderful company of course. I have also been told I am pretty good at motivating other people so if you are struggling with something, I'll do my best to help you find that intrinsic motivation! Also, I coach gymnastics, so I can teach you to do a backflip:)
