Hey there! My name is Meredith Hoofnagle. I was born on February 18, 1989 at 11:49pm in Winter Park, Florida. I grew up dancing competitively from age 3 to 15.
I switched to cheerleading in high school. I cheered competitively for one year and football all four years. I also was heavily involved in campus. I was Junior Class Representative. Senior year I was elected Senior Class Vice President. I was also the philanthropy chairwoman for Senior Homecoming week.
I hope you’re sitting down. I took Spanish all four years of high school. I was even Vice President of the Spanish Club my senior year.
I was in National Honor Society, Beta Club, all honors and multiple AP courses. I graduated with a weighted GPA over 4.5.
I had my sights set on the University of Florida. If I didn’t get into UF, I was going out of state. Thankfully, UF made the right decision and let me in.
My time at UF was anything but easy. I dealt with four deaths in my family, grief, loneliness, jealousy from people around me.
I didn’t care. I kept grinding. I got my degree in Telecommunications-Management with an outside concentration in Business Administration in August 2012.
I was also six months pregnant. My dream of being a sideline reporter on ESPN was derailed.
My calling was being a mom first.
But now, my dreams are even bigger than that. I love America. I love our people. I want us to be GREAT.
I want us to continue to fight for greatness every single day.
We are the best country in the world… But we can’t lose steam. We have to keep fighting for our faith, freedoms, safety, financial stability and overall well-being.
My dream job is to make our country the ultimate force to be reckoned with. I won’t give up until I do.
Are you ready for it?
