I am a Division One high jumper. For as long as I can remember, injuries have been part of my story. Through high school and into college, setbacks on the track were a constant. The most recent and most difficult has been chronic patellar tendinopathy, the kind of thing that does not show up clean on a scan but shows up every single time you try to jump.

That journey through injury is what brought me to Christ. I am not going to make it sound more polished than it was. I was struggling, I was lost, and Jesus met me right there in the middle of it. That changed everything. Not just how I train, but why. My faith is the foundation everything else is built on.

Because of everything I have been through, I want to share what I have with other athletes. To help them, inspire them, and make the hard seasons feel a little less lonely than they did for me.

That is why I post. That is why I coach. And that is why I built XXO Athletics, a clothing brand rooted in the same belief that the hard seasons are where the real growth happens.

I do not have it all figured out. But I share the journey so yours does not feel so alone.


For His Glory, Not Mine.
