I love training, competing, and pushing your body every day to do things that most people can’t or won’t do. I love that daily process and the results that are then possible. In transitioning away from my own elite athletic pursuit, I've found that same passion in my coaching and helping other young athletes to explore what they are capable of and to foster their inner drive.
I’ve been called intense and stubborn and fiery - traits that have always been with me but that have also been encouraged and strengthened by the obstacles and skepticism that I’ve had to overcome. I am also keenly aware that the true value of this athletic life lies in the friendships and relationships that I’ve made through my involvement in sport. The connections that I’ve made over the years and the mutual respect built from within the heart of the battle continue to be what drive and inspire me.
