I actually started cheering in the 5th grade for my elementary school.. pretty basic stuff. It was just sideline cheering for basketball. From there I cheered for a football league for 3 years and competed with that all-star team, then I cheered for my high school for 4 years. And now I coach :D

I was a gymnast since I could walk but once I hit 3rd grade I was a huge cross country runner starting and was big in training for the Olympics one day. I went to the Junior Olympics and placed top 5 for all of my events. Once I joined middle school I started on the Varsity team ended up destroying my ankles causing me to never run long distances again. My friend wanted me to tryout for cheerleading with her because she was afraid to do it by herself (8th grade). She never made the team and I made Varsity. I lost all of my tumbling by then so it wasn't my tumbling skills so I guess I just naturally fell into it. I've been doing it ever since and love it. I started coaching when I was 14 for pop warner and then by the time I was 18 I was running pop warner program and doing all star along with high school cheer. My first all star gym was Ultimate Cheer which is now CNY Storm (Albany). Now I'm coaching high school and on Triple Threat All stars.
