That’s me!


You're probably wondering how I got here...


Let's go back to the beginning.1984. I was introduced to pro wrestling by my father. And I've been in that relationship ever since. Fast forward to 2023 in which I'm an adult, who earns an income and one who treats herself all while working towards professional and personal goals.


WWE Smackdown was held at Barclays Center on December 1, 2023. I grabbed a pair of budget-friendly tickets, excitedly texted a friend if they wanted to go with me and away we went.


Randy Orton making his return to Smackdown was a big deal but when I saw this photo of me with one of my favorite WWE Superstars, Kevin Owen used on Ups and Downs (thanks, Simon Miller), I knew I had (almost) made it.
