About

Biography

Tokyo 2020 is my first Paralympic Games. I was born with Albinism, Nystagmus, and Myopia with Astigmatism which is why I have a visual impairment. I was adopted as a baby. I am an artist, a musician, a signer, a writer, a good public speaker, and I am good at multiple varieties under those fields. I am attending Purdue University majoring in Psychology and Meteorology in hopes of becoming a Forensic Meteorologist in the future. I enjoyed competitive horseback riding and track and field as a kid. During grade school I participated in Girl's on the Run. I've been in choir since grade school and got up to Bel Canto. I graduated high school on the high honor role and I never received lower than a C during my 4 years of high school. I swam 3 of my 4 years of high school on the high school Varsity girls swim team as an able-bodied swimmer as a freshman. I am a 12x IHSA Girls Swimming AWD champion and record holder.
