About this listen
Unique, a born combat athlete, steps into the wrestling world. Though she competed in judo and jiu-jitsu, neither captured her heart the way wrestling did. Through wrestling, Unique discovered her true gift—the scrap.
In a short amount of time, Unique built an impressive résumé. While she never claimed a state championship title, her career is nothing to overlook. Rather than avoiding challenges or shifting weight classes, Unique sought out the toughest competition Nevada had to offer. She embraced the more physical, gritty side of the sport, giving her an edge over most competitors. Her willingness to wrestle boys also played a major role in her development and toughness as an athlete.
Today, Unique continues to make an impact on the wrestling community. She is a coach at her alma mater, Sierra Vista, where she gives back to the program that helped shape her. Beyond coaching, she’s also the eye behind the lens—capturing wrestling moments as the program’s photographer. All of this while balancing work and continuing her own training in jiu-jitsu.
Unique is living proof that it’s never too late to step into wrestling—and that embracing the scrap can shape who you become, both on and off the mat.
