Many of you are aware that I am a Certified Personal Trainer, Flag Football Coach and Athlete however, in honor of National Girls and Women in Sports Day (NGWSD), let me give you all a brief glimpse of my athletic background and why I say this is my lifestyle.
-
At the age of 7, I began playing coed basketball for The Bomb Squad at Albemarle Road Rec. Center. While attending James Martin Middle, I played basketball and I also started playing soccer. During the off season I played AAU basketball for The Charlotte Stars and later, The Charlotte Monarchs (not pictured).
-
While attending West Charlotte High School (The Dub) 🦁♥️, I played basketball, soccer and volleyball year round. During my senior year, my team made school history by being the first women’s basketball team to win a state championship. 🏆🙌🏾 Special shoutout to my favorite cousin and teammates who are doing great things as Women’s High School and College Basketball Coaches! 👏🏾👏🏾

While attending WSSU 🐏♥️, I finally began playing rec. flag football (not pictured). I have been playing in leagues and tournaments in and outside of my home city since.
-
Sports have been a part of my life for years and it has blessed me not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well. From learning the importance of being positive, to the importance of hard work and consistency. Special thank you to my Daddy/Coach for introducing me to basketball at a young age. As a result, I am now able to teach and coach young athletes. 🙏🏾

To the girls, young ladies and women in sports, let’s continue doing great things by breaking barriers, making history and inspiring those who are watching us! 🙌🏾✨
