I decided to take everything I love about wrestling and create a business around the similar lessons and morals that the sport has taught me. I want BUSTZ to be the platform to empower girls everywhere, by hearing my story and inspiring girls to pursue their own dreams and push their limits. You can accomplish anything you set your mind to if you never give up.

From being the statistician on my high school wrestling team to then wrestling my last 2 years in high school— I feel in love with the camaraderie, the competition, and the family atmosphere that wrestling has. But there was one thing I didn’t like: the apparel. While I was getting all the wrestling essentials, I noticed there was something missing: a women’s wrestling sports bra. Every conversation with other wrestlers revealed they faced the same issues I did. For some, the high neck of the sports bra fit, but the sides didn't cover their full chest. For others, no matter how high the neckline was, it was never high enough. The minute they got into stance position, you could see inside the sports bra. Even worse, most had to wear both a sports bra and a halter top to get the full support and coverage they needed. I realized no one had the sports bra we needed, so I decided to design my own. After 3 years of product development, it's finally here: BUSZ, the high-impact combat sports bra. Now you can compete with complete focus, feel confident and not have to worry about coverage.

My journey began when my high school’s wrestling coach, Petrock, convinced me to wrestle with the boy’s team. After a year Mr. V proposed an idea, “imagine if you created a sports bra for female wrestlers, do you know how cool that would be?” My ‘haha yeah, ok,” response quickly became a, “Lets do it.” With the help of Jeff, Petrock, and Mr. V I was able to achieve all my wrestling accomplishments in high school.

I became the first girl wrestler on my high school wrestling team, here I won fourth place at my first tournament!

After three months of wrestling on the boys team, I created my high school’s first women’s wrestling team! The first girls on my team were Paige Kirk and Angela Gjini.

We were featured in our local magazine!

The women's wrestling team experienced a remarkable increase in participation, with its roster expanding from 8 members in year two to a thriving 15 in year three!

Behind the scenes of what a day working on BUSTZ looks like, after the 17th sports bra iteration I perfected the bra.

I went on a Journey and attended Wrestle Like a Girl Gala in Washington D.C. There I connected with remarkable individuals along with many other inspiring individuals.

I did it, and BUSTZ launches JULY !5th, 2024! BUSTZ offers 5 sizes, Pre- Order now!
