Q: What are your skating goals, both short-term and long-term?
Short-term, I would like to find a partner that I get along well with, on and off ice and train together to compete in the NQS series and Ice Dance Final this year. I am hoping to make the National Development team again.
Long-term, I’d like to grow the partnership with the goal of competing internationally.
Q: What qualities do you possess that would make you a good partner?
I am dedicated, supportive and easy to get along with. It is very important to me to have a friendship with my partner.
Extra comments:
I competed with my former partner in Juvenile dance in the US during the 22/23 and 23/24 seasons and in Intermediate Novice (ISU) internationally during the 24/25 season.
I am willing to travel for training if necessary. Ideally my partner would be willing to travel to Charlotte some as well. I have a flexible schedule because I take online classes for dual credit (high school and college) and I’m currently finishing my junior year of high school.
I plan to take time off of school before university, so that I can continue to train and compete full-time for a couple of years. I know it takes 2-3 seasons to build a strong competitive team over time and hope that my partner and her family are willing to look at this as a long-term process and commitment, with the understanding that the first season together will be about growing as a team.
I speak fluent German in addition to my native English. I’m willing to compete for another federation if my partner has citizenship for a country other than the US.
