Gymnastics, gymnastics, gymnastics! I'm from New York so I LOVE Team USA, but I'm also a huge fan of many international teams and athletes so my posts won't be super biased. I'm also a huge NCAA fan with big Gator and Bruin love. I write lots of commentary and analysis for www.thecouchgymnast.com. I'm a history major at Columbia University and I'm obsessed with travel. Check out my personal tumblr, Inner Monoblog!
