As the founder of You Throw Girl Sports Confidence Camp, Michelle empowers young female athletes to develop leadership, self-esteem, and strength both on and off the field. Through her nonprofit, One Golden Shot, she provides opportunities and mentorship to underserved youth.
Her entrepreneurial ventures include The Shot Diva Store, home to her brands Podium Cosmetics, Steady Glow Candles, the I Can Jewelry Collection, and the Everyday Champion apparel line, all designed to help people look good, feel good, and do good.
Michelle also brings her story to stages nationwide, delivering powerful keynotes on confidence, perseverance, and living with a Champion’s Mindset. Whether speaking to corporations, schools, or women’s groups, she weaves her personal journey with practical tools that leave audiences empowered to step boldly into their own greatness.
Now stepping into the world of beauty, Michelle is pursuing her cosmetology license, offering hair, makeup, facials, and nail services. Her journey from Olympic champion to beauty entrepreneur shows that confidence isn’t just something you speak—it’s something you live.
