Ava Jorgensen Miller: Grit, Growth, and the All-Around

She's a team captain, an All-Big 12 honoree, and a gymnast who once came close to walking away from the sport entirely. Now, heading into her senior season, Ava Jorgensen Miller reflects on the journey behind the accolades, from the burnout that nearly ended her career to the summer of hard work that changed everything. Ava opens up about life beyond the gym, getting married, balancing a supply chain internship, and a team trip through Europe that brought her squad closer together ahead of the season. She also shares honestly about her struggles with body image, the role her faith has played in her hardest moments, and the challenge of being a perfectionist in a sport that demands so much. As she enters her final year, Ava is chasing big goals, embracing the journey, and searching for one perfect routine.
