Personal: Daughter of Crystal and Kenneth Austin Jr. … has a younger sister, Kennedy … enjoys watching crime shows, doing self-care, taking pictures and modeling … Fun fact: “My pre-competition ritual has to be putting my headphones on to lock in. My music is always on the loudest setting possible. It’s always hip-hop/rap right before I compete, and usually the last thing I listened to is what I’m singing while waiting to get on the line. It keeps me focused.”

Why CMU?: “I chose CMU because of the great culture, high-end facilities and great recruiting.”
