Her 3.98 grade point average and her continued stellar performance in collegiate gymnastic competitions helped her secure the honor. She will graduate with a bachelor’s degree in summer 2021 and will then pursue a Professional Master’s degree in the College.
Clapper has also created a food and wellness blog, Zest & Finesse, in hopes to “inspire others to live happier and healthier lives through food.” She recently added a podcast to her platform, Zest & Progress, which focuses on motivating listeners and features interviews with fellow Gator gymnasts.
