History
I was born October 2nd 2000. When I was born, my brother Devin was 2 years old, and I had a step brother and a step sister (Samantha and William), they lived with their mom, but came to visit us often. At the time, my parents lived in Downers Grove. My mom and dad were paremedics, and I still remember going to their work and struggling to climb up and sit on the back of the trucks. We lived in a medium size house, with me my mom and dad, and my brother. I started ballet and dance, but quickly turned to gymnastics. My Aunt Jenna did gymnastics and received a full ride scholarship to UIC on their gymnastics team. I was inspired and decided I wanted to be just like her. Things weren't always easy in my house, and when my younger brother Gabriel was born (2004) things had gotten to the point where my mom and dad decided it was best to split up. For a while we moved around houses, and lived with my aunt and uncle at their house. While living with my Aunt Jenna and Uncle Brian I met a boy and a girl my age and Devin's age, who were my neighbors, and we quickly became friends. We continued being friends after I moved again into another house with my grandmother. Eventually they moved away, and we stopped talking as much. A new family moved into the house by my aunt and uncle, and there were three kids, my age, Devin's age, and Gabe's age. We were best friends, and are still friends today but not as close as before. I am Christian and a man at our church in Wheaton, named David, and my mom started dating and were married on March 28th, 2008 (Which was also my mom nd grandmother's birthday). After they got married, we moved to Woodridge,, and I met a girl named Faith and she introduced me to some of her friends, who now mean the world to me. In 2013 I won my state competition for gymnastics, again in 2014, I won my state competition, and placed second at regionals..

My economic history-
When I was younger my parents got divorced, and tht put my mom and my two brothers in a poor financial state. We lived in an apartment complex fora while in Downers Grove. My older and younger brother, me , my mom , and my grandmother later moved into a small, town house. With my grandmother living with us we were saving enough money to put my mom through medical school to become a nurse. After while my mom remarried and we bought a house in Woodridge, where I started school with the friends I have now. My mom works as an ER nurse, and we're saving so that she can go back to school for another medical job opportunity. And my stepdad is a promotional manager at Wheaton College. While all of this crazy moving and adjusting was going on, I have stayed in gymnastics. I started classes at a park district at a local highschool when I was 2. After a while when I was 5 or 6 I took a year off to figure out what else I wanted to do, eventually joining gymnastics again at Premeir gymnastics Acedemy in Downers Grove. Although we paid a couple hundred dollars every month at my club, the coaching sttaff was not worth the money. In 2011, I joined IGI, which was not in Downers Grove, and not as close. IGI costs alot more money than Premeir, but since then the coaching is much better, I have been increasingly successful.
