Never in a million years did I think I’d be featured in Sports Illustrated. Not for basketball, not for volleyball, and definitely not in a swimsuit editorial. But here we are, and I’m still pinching myself!

Growing up, I was the youngest of three and the only girl. My two older brothers didn’t cut me any slack. They made me tougher, quicker, and more competitive than I ever could’ve been on my own. Whether it was one on one basketball in the driveway or diving after a volleyball at practice, I learned early on how to hold my own and win.

Those years of sweat, bruises, and buzzer beaters gave me confidence that carried far beyond the court. It’s what helped me build a swimwear brand that celebrates every body, especially those of us who felt overlooked by traditional bikini designs. I know what it’s like to grow up with a small chest and feel like the options in stores were never quite made for me. That’s why this recent Sports Illustrated Swimsuit feature highlighting the best bikini tops for small chests felt so surreal.

Not only was our brand mentioned, but it was recognized by one of the most iconic names in fashion and athletics. For me, it wasn’t just about a product shoutout, it was a full circle moment. From being an athlete to creating something that makes women feel powerful, confident, and seen.

If you’re like me, an athlete turned entrepreneur, someone with a smaller chest, or just someone who wants to feel amazing in a bikini, I made this line for you. And this SI feature is just the beginning.

Check out the feature here, and if you’re ready to try the bikini top that made it all happen, shop our bestselling Night Swim (B&W Contrast) Collection.
