I am a wife and mother of a very active young lady (and a dog mom), and I live on a farm… it’s safe to say I am always on the move. I come from a very athletic, active family, so I was involved in sports and activities at a very young age, and it continued throughout school and into adulthood. Basketball was my
passion growing up, but then as I graduated and moved away to college, I started participating in half marathons. After running for a few years, I started to get bored and needed a change.

I drove by CrossFit Influence weekly on my commutes, and after many internal discussions, I got the courage to make the call and see what CrossFit was all about. That was August 2019. I was hooked on the first on-ramp class. I love strength training, it’s never the same thing every day, and the camaraderie I felt that first day was amazing. The love and passion I have for CrossFit has only grown.

As the years went on, I started learning and improving on the movements of CrossFit and dialing in on my nutrition to maximize my performance in the gym. I knew I wanted to coach at some point because I love watching people push themselves outside their comfort zones and achieve their goals. The
opportunity presented itself in July 2023, and that is when I got my L1. I absolutely love coaching classes and interacting with our athletes on a daily basis… the gym truly is my happy place! Please, if you are on the fence, stop in, say hi, and see what CrossFit is all about, we’d love to have you!
