But I was able to narrow it down eventually and chose Michigan . So , yeah , during recruiting a a lot of people think they have to put on almost a facade and portray themselves as someone that they might not actually be . So , I think a big thing is just to express your true self to the coaches , be who you are , talk to them as if you would normally talk to anybody else don't try to impress them necessarily because what they're going to be impressed by is you being able to be comfortable being yourself around them ?
I think taking less turns that are quality and that really matter will also help with the recovery of my body versus taking a bunch of turns that maybe aren't as good and kind of put my body in a situation where I might not be able to perform at my best anymore . I was actually what people may call a late bloomer with my recruiting process . I started getting into emailing coaches and calling coaches a little bit later than other girls in the gymnastics world .
I was videos of my gymnastics just trying to get on their radar and kind of let them know that I'm here and that I'm doing the sport and I want to do it in college . And then from there , I started calling coaches and just talking to them on the phone , getting to hear a little bit about their university , getting to tell them a little bit about myself and what I'm interested in and what skills I'm working on . And then from there , I started taking visits like most other people do .
I started getting into emailing coaches and calling coaches a little bit later than other girls in the gymnastics world . So I started by reaching out to as many college coaches as I could through email , sending my social media user names .
