My name is Tamara. I'm a college freshman and a competitive wrestler, and I'm trying to do something that doesn't have a roadmap.

I broke city records in high school. I built a following by just being myself — sharing my grind, my faith, my real life. And now I'm in college trying to figure out how to keep all of that going while also just... surviving as a first-year student.

Wrestling isn't just a sport to me. It's how I pray. It's how I process. It's the one place where everything makes sense. And I refuse to let money be the reason I have to slow down.

Here's what I'm raising money for — honestly:

Getting to tournaments that actually matter for my future

Gear and equipment (it wears out faster than people think)

Training camps where I can compete with the best and get better

The random costs that come with being a college athlete nobody warns you about

I'm not someone who asks for help easily. But I'm learning that letting people in isn't weakness — it's wisdom.

If something about my story resonates with you, even a little — I'd be grateful for your support. And if you can't give, sharing this means just as much.

Thank you for seeing me.

— Tamara
