IN MY WORDS

If I wasn't a figure skater ... I would be a gymnast or a track and field runner.

My favorite thing about being a figure skater is ... the fact that you're always able to improve and learn something new.

My figure skating hero is ... Michelle Kwan

I manage my pre-skate jitters by ... breathing deeply, yawning, going through my keywords.

My favorite thing about performing is ... the support from the audience.

After I'm done skating, I want to ... become a doctor.

My hobbies are ... hiking, biking, reading, playing tennis.
