What certifications or qualifications do you hold?

Crossfit level 1

How long have you been coaching crossfit/hybrid?

I have been coaching crossfit/hybrid since 2013. I have been involved with sports my entire life and have been coaching, gymnastics, basketball, soccer, and volleyball players. 

What's your coaching philosophy or approach? 

My approach is to get to know the athlete well enough to learn what philosophy they will stick with. Each athlete is different, so my approach is to figure out how each individual can find something they will continue with for years to come and turn fitness into a lifestyle. 

Do you have a special focus (e.g mobility, strength, endurance, etcs) in your coaching? 

The cool thing about being a multi-sport athlete for years is your specialties broaden so you are able to reach more people of all ages and stages of life. I love to help the younger athletes figure out their strengths and grow in their sport and I like to help older clients who are working on hormonal changes and how to adapt their fitness with their internal changes. 

What are your hobbies or interests outside of coaching?

Outside of the gym my family enjoys hiking, camping, biking, flag football, and volleyball. Our children are getting older and we enjoy introducing an active lifestyle to them and showing them how fun it can be. 

Whats your favorite thing about working with the Five Forks Athletics community? 

My favorite thing about working with the FFA community is getting to know the members on a personal level and watching their self-confidence grow. Its fun to watch them hit PRs, run faster, get a new skill, but its really cool to see their love for themself grow, watch them grow with their family, etc. 

Whats the best piece of advice you'd give to someone new to Crossfit/Hybrid? 

Just walk through the door.

One interesting fact about yourself that most people don't know? 

I don't like flowers.
