Cecilia's story

I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin where cheerleading played a huge role in shaping who I am. Through cheer, I gained confidence, built lifelong friendships, and learned what it means to work hard and support others. Cheerleading gave me a sense of purpose and belonging during some of the most important years of my life. As I got older and became a mom, I found myself wanting to create that same experience for other kids. I knew I had something special to share, and I wanted to build a program where every child felt welcome, encouraged, and valued.

I have always had a strong entrepreneurial spirit and a deep love for working with youth. I am someone who sees a need and feels called to take action. That is what led me to start Jump Joy Cheer. I wanted to create more than a cheerleading program. I wanted to build a community that uplifts young athletes and helps them shine both on and off the mat. Watching kids go from shy and unsure to bold and confident is one of the greatest joys in my life.

I believe that when kids are supported and celebrated, they thrive. My passion for this work runs deep because I know how much it matters. Jump Joy Cheer is not just my business, it is my calling. I am proud of what we are building and excited to grow a program that empowers the next generation through joy, teamwork, and movement.
