Few people know that I: Did gymnastics for 15 years before switching to diving
Person who had greatest influence on my athletics career: My parents
I started playing my sport because…: After 15 years of gymnastics I decided to switch to diving because some of my past gymnastics teammates became divers as well, so I decided to give it a chance and I really enjoyed it.
I chose Rutgers because…: I have always wanted to do a college sport ever since I was a kid, so when I was given the opportunity to dive at Rutgers I really wanted to take it.
