I hate having my picture taken.

What advice would you give someone just starting at Coyote?

Take it slowly. Leave your ego at the door and develop the basics of movement from the get-go. The rest will come eventually.

The friendships that have flourished while competing and training in CrossFit will last a lifetime.

Has CrossFit affected your life outside of the gym?

Absolutely. I was able to utilize my strengths in gymnastics to overcome a wall in an obstacle course at a retreat. Felt pretty proud of myself.

Married to Chris, and mom to Austin, both of whom are members. I work for a wealth management firm. I played some high school basketball and co-rec softball. We like to woodwork and make furniture.
