I've had to learn through experiences not to be afraid to fail. You don't know what the future holds for you. You can hope your dreams come true, but you have to be fearless. I don't want to look back and think, What if?

If you are afraid of failure, you don't deserve success.

I've had to make really big decisions, knowing the results were not always in my control. Through these moments, I've learned to be daring and take risks but understand that everything always happens for a reason.

I'm showing the younger generation your career doesn't have to be over when you're 16-years-old.

You always have to finish what you start and I learned that some of life's greatest lessons come with disappointment.

Gymnastics has given me everything in my life. I will continue to stay involved and try to give back to the sport that has given me so much.

Finish what you start, no matter how painful it may be.
