CrossFit came into my life July of 2012. Prior to that, I never did a pull-up, I had an idea of what a power clean was, I never squat below parallel—That was about how much I knew what I was getting myself into. Ever since then, I haven’t stopped. I’ve learned and improved since the start. CrossFit has opened my eyes about training in ways I never thought I could imagine. I’ve learned a lot along the way from all my previous coaches. I came to CrossFit Tribe in the summer of 2015 as an athlete. I knew it was home because of how the environment felt and how everyone made me feel welcomed. Now, fast forward a few years, I coach CrossFit and Weightlifting for Pre-Teens and Teens. It is my plan to give back to the CrossFit and Weightlifting community everything I have learned along the way.
