“Gold medals aren’t really made of gold. They’re made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts” -Dan Gable In 2021 I decided to go all in to chase my dreams of being a professional racquetball player. I started the season being ranked #68 in the world, and finished that first season #1 in the US, and #6 in the world. 5 years on tour and proudly wearing USA on my back, life pulled the rug from under me resulting in hip surgery. Comeback 1, I made the finals of my first pro event back and won 2 gold medals at USA Nationals. Then came the re-tear. Docs said would you rather be active in your 30s or compete? My response- there has to be way for both. I am not finished. This is just my beginning, and with every win and challenge there is an opportunity to influence others to reach their dreams. My motto- it’s a choice. A choice to be happy. A choice to chase your dreams. Make that choice. I invite you to be part of my comeback story. Go Team USA
