The OSU cheer squad is one of the best in the country. The team is not only known for their talent and skills, but the collegiate image they continually uphold.

All the activities and trips we take together! The cheer, pom, and Petes are one big family. I love it when we all get together as one. CHOMP!
Favorite hobby outside of OSU Spirit:
I love making coffee for my friends. My kitchen has been turned into my own personal coffee shop, and I’ll often get phone calls from friends asking if I’m home and would I make coffee for them.

My family. They taught me to be respectful, kind, intelligent, healthy, modest, and to always follow my dreams. I can only hope to raise my family the way they have raised me. I love you Mom, Dad, and Meredith!

I hope the OSU Spirit program and OSU will remember me for my energy and positive attitude I continually bring to games and practices, and I hope to have influenced others to carry on my enthusiasm long after I’m gone.
