I started climbing in my hometown of El Cerrito, CA when I was 12 years old; I had tried a lot of sports before that: running, swimming, tennis, martial arts, and even skateboarding. Nothing ever stuck until I joined the climbing team at Bridges Rock Gym. There, I made friends and challenged myself, making me the person I am today.

Who is your favorite climbing partner?
It is impossible for me to pick just one partner so I'd have to go with my roommates: Sienna Kopf, Thea Wulff, and Quinn Mason. They make me psyched to train, and have fun, every single day!
What is your go-to hype song?
Imagine coming onto the climbing stage with this song playing: INTENSE
What was the first La Sportiva product you tried?
The Skwama, such a great all-around climbing shoe!
Which charity/advocacy organizations do you support or belong to?
I especially admire the work done by Kai Lightner at Climbing4Change and other leaders in our industry.
+0... I'm a perfect square!
