If you’re a member of , you’ve probably already seen this, but I’m excited to share the cover article I wrote for the September/October issue of Mentor magazine! It was so fun to reflect back on how I’ve returned to a student role in the last few years.

Thanks for the opportunity to share some of my stories! It was a blast to write.

Just one week ago, I finished out my first competition season. It was everything I hoped it would be and so much more. Three contests across the Mid-America region and so much learned along the way. Thank you to everyone who gave me advice, let me ask a million questions, and to anyone who took the time to give me coaching. I’m so grateful and can’t wait to continue improving!

Here’s to moving up to Sportsman, to hard work, and the great friends I’ve made along the way! 🥂 This is only the beginning! 🙃❤️🎉
