Gabriella Howard began figure skating at the age of eleven in Stoneham, Massachusetts. At sixteen, Gabriella moved to Milan to train with the Italian National Olympic Team. After one year, she returned to the U.S. to train at the Olympic Training Center in Lake Placid, NY.
She competed for the U.S. in numerous high-level skating competitions. She lived, worked and trained at the Olympic Training Center for three years. Sadly, in the second year she had a set back and broke her ankle.
She now plans on going to college in San Francisco and majoring in Communications, with a minor in Sports Training and Therapy. Gabriella enjoys working in youth ministry and is thrilled to share her Catholic faith.
