Accomplishments
Captain of my Cheerleading team in our second year attending the World Championships in Florida, USA. In this, we placed 5th in the world. This was a huge achievement that took high levels of dedication and motivation to be physically and mentally prepared and as captain, I had to also ensure the rest of the team was all on the same page.
