COACHING SINCE: 2024
FAVORITE MOVEMENT: I’m a big fan of the deadlift because it feels so powerful to move such big weights but recently I’ve been leaning into the bench and becoming more proficient and technically sound and it’s taking a very close second.
FAVORITE WORKOUT GEAR: I love my old school Texas leather weightlifting belt, it fits great and has been my go-to gear since I started lifting heavy.
BORN AND RAISED: I was born in Cleveland OH but as a military dependent I’ve lived in 6 states and Germany.
FAVORITE TV SHOW/MOVIE: not much of a TV girl, it’s mostly home improvement shows as background noise
HOBBIES: lifting, reading, watercolors and traveling to MN to do all those things at our families lake cabin
FAVORITE FOOD: pasta - gnocchi specifically with some grilled chicken, spinach and a creamy pesto sauce. Yum!
HIDDEN TALENT: my husband would say rearranging our furniture, by myself 🤣
ATHLETIC BACKGROUND: high school and college swimming, track, boot camps and sprint distance triathlons before finding CrossFit and powerlifting
OCCUPATION: National Account Executive in the title and closing industry with a focus on corporate relocation
FAVORITE 12 LABOURS MEMORY or COACHING MEMORY
- One of my young lifters competed for the first time last year, through the year or so of coaching her I have watched her confidence blossom and her personality really shine. She has gone from being a slightly nervous and very quiet/reserved person to a fully engaged, enthusiastic and confident participant. She recently told me that as she embarks on her career she feels that her time powerlifting has helped prepare her to be more confident and outgoing.
WHY DO I COACH?
I want to share my love for the sport and help people get stronger and more confident in their bodies. I was fortunate to have some really good coaches who helped me along the way and inspired me to follow my dream of becoming a coach.
