Berlyn Sharp - Top Ten
1.If you could make one rule that everyone in the world had to follow, what would it be?
I was loved Rapunzel; the fairy tale about a prince and a girl with magical long blond hair, that eventually conquered all of the Witch's’ evil intentions. After learning that Rapunzel lost her magic when her hair was cut, I vowed not to cut my beautiful blonde tresses. I didn’t have my first hair cut until 6yrs old because I didn’t want to lose my magic!
2.If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
I wish I could skateboard. I live in a household with nothing but brothers and it would be really fun to skate with them. I love the creativity of the sport and know that I have the coordination and persistence required to be good at it but, Skateboarding can be unforgiving as failing often means slamming into concrete, which isn’t ideal when you’re pursuing a future collegiate career as a gymnast.
3.When do you feel a child or teen becomes an adult?
Dr. Kennedy Garcia, my mentor, personal cheerleader and Mrs. California International 2023. She pushes me toward my goals, inspires me to be a leader and is one of the most supportive humans I know. Surprising me at gymnastics, exposing me to new adventures and sharing life experiences are just a few things that make our relationship so special. She competed at California International because I asked her to and now we get to reign together!
4.What do you feel you have learned in life that will be the most useful?
I dressed as the one and only, 2020 Olympic vault silver medalist, MyKayla Skinner. As a current level 9 gymnast myself, her career is one that I dream of. She was a scholar athlete at the University of Utah which is one of my dream schools and a 2X olympian. Her motto of never giving up is something I admire and part of the story I shared on Halloween when asked about my costume.
5.What do you feel is the hardest job in the world and why?
Shake it Off by Taylor Swift is not just a song that makes me dance every time I hear it, its also a mantra I have adopted when dealing with negativity. I can never be in a bad mood when I hear this song and if I am, you know, I will just, shake it off!
