There's still so many opportunities that you can achieve , and I would say just go for every single one that you can get . We've done a couple NIL deals . With a lot of the team , we will do coaching appearances , so we'll host like a camp at a nearby gym where a couple of us will come and coach kids for the entire day .
I think you'll perform your best when you have that drive of passion and all heart behind your gymnastics . The first year I got into college , I was lucky enough to have opportunity for NIL deals . That was the first year .
But just taking every single moment that you have while leaving some time for yourself , but when you're traveling or when you have a couple of hours after practice , just grinding out some homework and getting ahead the best you can . is a great way to manage it all . Trying to get a Division One scholarship is definitely tough , and I know it can be grueling , but the one thing that I would keep in mind during the whole process is to always have fun with gymnastics and be grateful and really take in every moment because it does go by really quickly and Just enjoying your time and having passion within your sport is what's going to lead you to being your most successful self .
And I kind of jumped into it and took Anything , any opportunity that I , that came my way , I established my brand and what I wanted to represent , and I tried to go after every single opportunity that came my way , and I've had a lot of fun with it all . I've worked with a lot of different brands . I have been working with Steve Madden , actually Cava .
I balance academics and sports by taking Every little piece of free time that I have and getting a little bit of schoolwork done here , there , getting head-on assignments . It really helps . I major in neurobiology , so it's definitely tough balancing the two , but I've had Quite a lot of practice at it in high school .
