My Story
I didn't grow up in Hawaii...
In fact, far from. I’m from a small town in Missouri. I love my hometown and where I’m from. It’s part of who I am. I love Missouri and always will.
I had BIG dreams growing up and used to tell people I would move to Hawaii someday. When I was young.. like 9-years-old it was “cute”. But when I got older about to graduate high school, people would say, “What that’s crazy. You can’t just move to Hawaii! You’ve got to be rich to do that. Maybe when you’re old and retired.”
How discouraging.
Despite the doubts from many, I made the team at the University of Arkansas and cheered there for four incredible years.
