Personal: Mackenzie Richards was born on December 5, 1996 in Palmdale, Calif. Shortly after her birth, she moved to Simi Valley. Growing up, she wanted to accomplish everything that came her way, but one thing that was always questioned in her mind was how machines and cars worked and operated. In 6th grade, she began playing water polo and fell in love with the sport. Before tournaments, she has her music blasting to focus and to get her mind in the game. She is adventurous and enjoys seeing what the world has in store for her. In her free time, she loves to surf and skateboard. She is also a strong believer that hard work will pay off in the end.
