Our next Alumni Conversation of the season is with one who we have watched grow up in front of our eyes. From winning the all around at the Level 9 Easterns, to excelling at the elite level, to her beautiful bars and beam as a Cal Bear. Our guest is the fabulous Marvel Superhero Gabby Perea. As we do with each episode we take a journey back with Gabby to her Region 5 days and how her time as an elite helped her in the transition to college gymnastics. We of course dive into the beam dismount that broke the Gymternet, her standing full at nationals and much much more.
