I was born and raised in Scottsdale, Arizona. I started sports at an early age, finding baseball and football as my favorites. I stuck with football until my sophomore year of college led to a season ending injury. Once football ended I found Crossfit in 2012, and the filled my competitive void. Over the years I fell in love with the methodology the people that filled the gym. I had no doubt it was what I wanted to do for living. I went to ASU and got my Bachelors Degree in Exercise Science. Being an owner of Camelback CrossFit has been one of the greatest things that has ever happened to me.

Credentials:
-Bachelors of Exercise Science from Arizona State University
-CrossFit Level 1
-CrossFit Level 2

I am originally from Eau Claire, Wisconsin. I was always involved in several athletics growing up, playing football, basketball, baseball, and track. After sports, I had a fitness void in my life. I was still an active person, but it was difficult to find motivation in the gym. I then discovered CrossFit through a friend while living in Texas in 2011. Instantly fell in love with the community fitness atmosphere that CrossFit provides. Working along others gives me the motivation I need each day. In 2013, I moved to Scottsdale, AZ and started coaching CrossFit. Over the years I have competed in several national level CrossFit competitions. In 2017, wanting to furthered my knowledge about exercise science, I decided to complete a Exercise Science Masters degree from Arizona State University.

Credentials:
-Masters Degree in Exercise Science
-CrossFit Level 1

-CrossFit Level 2
-USA Weightlifting Level 1
-NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist.

I lettered my freshman year for the 400m dash and ran on varsity the remainder of my high school years ending with 4 league championships and 1 state championship.

 

Due to a hamstring injury my last year of track, I was unable to run track at the collegiate level. Instead, I turned towards intramural sports and the globo gym style of working out. I first heard of CrossFit through a college friend and gave it a shot. I was hooked on the community and the ability to see your hard work pay off. I wanted to help others achieve their goals which is why I decided to take the CrossFit trainer’s course. The most rewarding part for me is helping someone with a movement whether it’s lifts or gymnastics and seeing the light turn on in their head when they get it.

Never being on a team growing up makes me proud to call Crossfit my sport of choice. One thing Crossfit has given me is a huge boost of confidence in myself.
