Why did you get into fitness (and CrossFit)?

I got into it for the results I’ve seen and felt.  I stayed for the community you inevitably become a part of.  I love that we don’t specialize in anything, but instead try to be really good at all things fitness.  And who doesn’t like a good high five or a fist bump after a tough WOD.

Why did you become a Coach?

I’ve been a Personal Trainer and I also coach elite baseball.  While you don’t always get through to everyone, there are enough moments where you do see the light bulb or the switch come on in an athlete.  And to be a small part of an “A-ha” moment or a PR for an athlete, hear about all the positives going on because of fitness is great!

Probably the Turkish Get Up.  It tests strength, mobility, stability, and takes you through all planes of movement.

Superman because he can do everything.  But if I could have one superpower I’d choose teleportation.

Why I got into Fitness/CrossFit?

I was introduced to CrossFit through my sister in 2018. At the time I was my heaviest and feeling very out of shape, as well as struggling with binge eating habits. I decided to join a local box with the thought “if I don’t like it I won’t go back.” I quickly got pulled into the CrossFit cult-ure and realized how much more eCrossFit had to offer. As the time went on I noticed that my overall health was improving drastically. I have lost some of the excess weight, feeling stronger than ever and have improved on my nutrition habits. I also discovered a supportive and fun community that motivates me every day!

Why did you become a Coach?

I became a Coach because I wanted to share my love for CrossFit with others and help them achieve their fitness and nutrition goals. I enjoy seeing people progress and overcome their challenges.
