I will be graduating from nursing school in May and am really looking forward to starting my career as a nurse! I also have written and published a book titled, "Dream Big! Journey from a Childhood Dream to Reality" and it will also be released in May!


People you want to thank:

First off, I'd like to thank God for giving me the ability to lift and be successful. For it is through Christ I get my strength. My Dad, for being the best coach, father, and friend anyone could ask for. He is and always will be my inspiration, and is constantly pushing me to be the best I can be. My Mom for being my other half, and always being there when I need her most. The rest of my family and friends for all the encouragement and support they offer. Pete at Titan Support for all the sponsorship and great gear he's provided for me over the years. Steve and Deana Ceman and Randy and Theresa Rucks for their gracious sponsorship. Without my sponsors I wouldn't be able to do any of this! And lastly for everyone on Team USA! I am so grateful to have the family bond we have! You've watched me grow up and continue to grow and I love you all! For those of you that I don't know, I look forward to meeting and getting to know you!
