2021 Project Beauty
Do you feel like you can be your authentic self at school & in front of friends ?
Yes. When I’m at school and with my friends, I feel as though I can be myself. People who know me know that I am very accepting of others and I am not judgemental. I think the reason why my friendships are so strong is because the few people in my life know they can count on me. I'm understanding and very loyal.
Does makeup/hair make you feel more “presentable” or are you okay being fresh faced in public ?
I like to go with more of a natural look. I really love my freckles and they’re my “signature feature.” When I go out, I usually like to curl my hair, put on some mascara and call it a day:) I rarely get ready anymore. With being quarantined, I haven’t felt the need to get ready when I’m going to be home all day.
What makes you particularly happy?
Cheer makes me extremely happy! It is my passion and it allows me to embrace who I am and what my abilities are to the sport. There's nothing more exhilarating than being on a stage, performing in front of hundreds of people, with my squad...my family. My coaches have been there to support me 100%. They help build my confidence in my jumps, basing skills and overall performance.
What makes you laugh ?
My family and friends make me laugh! I can always count on my loved ones to put a smile on my face. They always know how to cheer me up:)
How important do you think is physical appearance?
I've never been one to judge others based on their appearance. If you are a good person, I value that. Though it can be easy to get caught up in what others think you should look like, it's really important to stay true to who you are and not be influenced by the actions or opinions of others.
What is your definition of true beauty ?
True beauty to me is loving who you are on the inside as well as the outside.
What do you think of the proverb, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder?"
That's very subjective because it isn't beauty one sees in oneself but how others observe how you look.
