Coach Paige  is from St. Louis, Missouri. Cheerleading has been a big part of her life for over 14 years. She began taking tumbling classes and cheering for a recreational football team at 4 years old. She began competitive cheerleading when she was 7 years old at Spirit Elite and continued her all star cheer career all the way up until she was 18 years old at Cheer St. Louis where she won several national championship titles and got to compete at The Summit, placing 5th in the nation. In addition, she cheered for her high school, Fort Zumwalt West, for 4 years with 3 of those being on the varsity team and being captain. Paige graduated in 2021 from Fort Zumwalt West Hight School with Summa Cum Laude honors. Outside of cheerleading, she is currently a sophomore at Mizzou where she is majoring in Elementary Education.  She has been a preschool teacher for 2 years and has a passion for working with children. Once coming to college, she realized that she was really missing the sport and wanted to get into coaching. At Eagle Elite, she coaches several classes along with working with the Hatchlings and Wings teams. She absolutely love working at Eagle Elite and being able to watch the kids grow as people and as athletes and we are so happy to have her as part of our coaching staff.
