3. Does your school have a seperate dance team? If so, who is better? Yes, my school has an amazing dance program and they are way more serious. We took second at state and went to nationals and did awesome.

4. What is the biggest myth about cheerleaders? That they are all stupid... and pretty. I feel as though I am intelligent and there are many cheerleaders and dancers at my school that some people would not think of as gorgeous.

5. A couple of years ago Nebraska had a ban, that cheerleaders weren't allowed to leave their feet. That ban has since been lifted. What are your thoughts about a ban like that? I Believe that ban is very unfair because all though stunting and jumps may be dangerous, so are almost all high school sports.

6. I saw you are a senior this year, are you planning on going to college right away? If so, you plan on staying in Colorado? Do you plan on cheering in college? I am going to go to ASU and I want to be a part of a semi-pro football teams dance squad.

8. Since were a sports website, I gotta ask. Do you watch any sports? If so, which ones? Any favorite teams? Yes, I love to watch football, basketball, and baseball. My favorite teams are the Bronco's, Nuggets, and the Red Sox.

9. On average, how many hours per week does your squad practice? Well, for dance we practiced every day for 2 hours and sometimes more before a competition. We also had to take extra classes at a dance studio for about 4 hours a week. My cheer squad practices three times a week for an hour and in the summer we have speed camp every day for 4 hours.

10. Fun question. What is one thing in the world you would change and why? If I could change anything it would be religion. I hate that everyone is so seperated by their religions and close minded. I practice Science of Mind and we accept all religions.
