Greetings Hivers,

I would love to meet the parents of this 14 year old young lady who has achieved both athletic and academic excellence.

Does anyone know her name and what she did?

It's Zaila Avant-garde and she is the winner of this year's Scripps National Spelling Bee 🐝 Contest. She won against 208 other spellers.

I'm impressed by the fact that not only is Zaila the winner of this year's contest but she also holds three Guinness World Records for her skills in basketball 🏀.

In my limited years on mother earth there are very few people who are that balanced. Kudos to you Zaila.

This brought back memories of Jamaican Jodiann Maxwell's win in 1998.

Stay active, stay healthy.

I'm not familiar with who you might be talking about...

Zaila Avant-garde out of New Orleans.

That's awesome! I hadn't heard anything of it but after googling her name it looks like she's going to at least be getting a good education from here.

Isn't that awesome? Her parents must have done something right and they must be really proud.
