Genesis graduated from Fairmont High School in 2019 and was currently in her sophomore year at the University of Dayton, majoring in Forensic Psychology. At Fairmont, she was involved in the Color Guard and Winter Guard. More recently, she spent the last 2 years spinning in the Color Guard as a member of the Pride of Dayton. In the words of Mr. Will, "Genesis poured her heart and soul into every single rehearsal and performance - but will be remembered for her uplifting spirit, positive attitude and her wonderful sense of humor." In addition to her love of color guard and dance, she loved music and played the violin and was also great at karaoke. Genesis loved the beach and traveling. She was a free spirit, a leader, and was the best big sister who lived for her siblings.
