Amelia Smith grew up in Elk River, Minnesota, and moved to Kansas to attend the University of Kansas, where she is currently pursuing her undergraduate degree. She says the best part of her story so far has been moving away from home and building a life of her own while continuing to grow both personally and professionally. Outside of Freedom and school, Amelia loves staying active and enjoys just about any form of exercise. Whether she's working out or playing volleyball, she feels most like herself when she's moving and challenging herself physically. Her family—including her mom, dad, brother, and sister—still lives in Minnesota and continues to be a strong source of support. Amelia describes herself as driven, disciplined, and a good listener. She's passionate about helping others make the most of their health and believes in preserving our bodies so we can continue doing the things we love. A fun fact that surprises most people is that she's ambidextrous. She's currently focused on building the habit of journaling before bed, taking time each day to reflect and continue growing both personally and professionally.
