Being a twin sister to Kirstie, give us a couple of examples of what she is like as a twin sister.
I would not have it any other way! As most people probably know, Kirstie and I are completely different! As a twin sister, Kirstie is always the loud/ tell it how it is type of person. I could always count on her to have my back; everyone knew not to mess with me, because then they would have to deal with her! Going to different colleges, sometimes our breaks aren’t quite the same, which is always so hard! When my sister leaves, the house gets so quiet. You can always count on my sister for a good time, she’s so much fun to be around. With our personalities being so different, I think we complimented each other well, which is why we get along!
What is it like dancing with Kirstie?
Kirstie and I had been dancing together since we were three. Growing up in the dance world, we did duos, trios and small groups together. I loved dancing with my sister; it’s always easier dancing next to someone you like to be around. In high school, we got to share the role of captain together, and our different personalities made a great team. When we decided to split up for college, it was always weird going to each other’s games and not being on the floor at the same time, but it was fun seeing all our hard work that we did together pay off in the collegiate level!
What is one word you would use when describing your sister?
Outrageous
Tell us something that Kirstie's coaches and teammates may not know about her.
Kirstie literally sleeps with her eyes WIDE OPEN at times. I can remember several times I would go into her room, or walk in the living room and try having a conversation with her, and she was asleep the entire time! It’s the craziest thing ever!
If Kirstie was driving down the highway today, what song would she be playing?
Gosh… what song would she not be belching? As of today, she’s on this “Let It go” trip… off of frozen. She has to look up the lyrics, because she actually only knows like one verse. But on a good day, Kirstie would be singing, “She got a donk!” The words are pretty repetitive… so it’s a little easier for her to sing!

Charismatic
How does Kirstie lead by example during practices and game days?
Kirstie is the motivating force at practice and is a role model to her teammates. She is one of the hardest working members of the team and encourages others to do so too. She is dependable; always on time, always at all practices and games and most importantly helps with things outside of practice.
What is your favorite memory of Kirstie?
Although several of my top memories involve humor because Kirstie says and does the funniest things, I think my favorite memory is when Kirstie was holding my three-week son during tryouts this year for the first time. She loves babies and will make a great mom in the future!

Her ability to lead a team and bring out the best in everyone.

What is your favorite memory of Kirstie?
I have a thousand wonderful memories about Kirstie but the one that stands out the most over this year was sitting down in a circle after a stressful practice we had trying to get one of our dances ready for state that weekend. She sat us all down and told us how strong of a team we are, how proud our coach was and how proud she was to be our captain. She talked about hope faith and love as a team and it touched us all that night after practice.

She has humor all the time and there is never a dull moment when I'm around her. She makes every hard situation bearable with her humor.

Kirstie is one of the most supportive and dedicated person I know. She has made me personally into such a strong person, more confident and into a leader I never thought was possible.
