Am I a boxer? No. Am I a fighter? Absolutely. My whole life I've been told I'm this strong independent woman and I was never sure if that was a backhanded compliment. As I've grown up I have realized what a gift it is to be the way I am. Despite my multiple RBF allegations, I use my power and grit as an asset.
I committed my whole life to dance until I suffered from 2 ACL injuries and major surgeries. If going through such a traumatic event has taught me one thing it's how strong I am. Anyone who has experienced that knows the mental turmoil that I endured. But in retrospect, I am thankful for that trauma because it lit a fire. I applied the same dedication I had to recover from these injuries to my design work.
As my mom would say, I'm just a girl with a strong personality.
