Pride Athlete Feature - Lexi Ross

Meet Lexi. She is a strong and supportive person with an incredible attitude.

In her own words: “For me, identifying as a member of the LGBTQ community means that I will always have the support and love of people who don’t even know me, even in times when it’s hard to love myself. Being a part of this community is about building us up and allowing others to stand on our shoulders so that those that come after us can see even farther.”

What is or are some challenges you have overcome or are still overcoming?

“One of my biggest challenges is learning to love and accept who I am and learning that there has never been anything wrong with me for having love in my heart.”

“Pride is unapologetically loving who you are and never letting others tear you down or make you feel small.” - Lexi Ross
