3. How do you define beauty?
Beauty is a state of mind. It is feeling comfortable in your own skin, regardless of anyone else’s input. Beauty comes in many different forms: a bubbly personality, grit, a quirky laugh, stylish outfits, or confidence. No beauty is the same and we should all celebrate and accept what makes each of us uniquely beautiful.
4. Biggest struggle for women and or non-binary?
Women’s reproductive rights. A woman’s decision on whether or not to have a child is not anybody’s business but her own, and has no place in the political arena.
5. Why do you skate?
I originally started skating to stay fit and get outdoors. I quickly realized it was much more than that and it has truly become a huge part of my life. Skating challenges me physically and mentally and has allowed me to become a part of such a supportive community. I love connecting with people from all walks of life who share the same passion as I do!
6. What do you want people to be aware of?
Try not to compare yourself to others so much! Whether it’s how much progress you are making at the skate park or how far along in your career you are, follow your own path 😌
