Sports have been a lifelong passion, with competitive baseball shaping my early years until 35. My journey into weightlifting began in high school, evolving into a deep commitment to fitness. In 2014, CrossFit ignited a new fire, leading me to compete across various divisions and ultimately pursue my coaching certification. Now, as a Certified HYROX Level 1 Performance and CrossFit Level 1 coach, I'm driven to empower others, supporting all levels and ages, to achieve their fitness goals.
