ROSE WINKLE

I have been around martial arts all of my life and I feel that it has really helped to instill certain foundations in my life that I will never forget. I have spent extensive time studying and working abroad and being a martial artist has taught me to always be aware of my surroundings and various self defense mechanisms which have made me feel safer in those foreign nations.

Aside from martial arts I am also a graduate student at Washington University in St. Louis and applying to medical school. I know that characteristics of the martial artist will help me in these endeavors.
