she is very inspiring. she quit skating for a while bcs she felt too much pressure from others. then she came back as her true self and it shows in her performances. lovely example on how being true to yourself gives you much more power than bending to the will of others.

her hair is so cool. she dyes one stripe every year. very cool to see alternative styles in a space theyre not very common in. i used to have b&w hair but the stripes the other way, it still my favorite hairstyle ive done
