Degrees and Certifications:

Bachelor of Science in Physical Education (Fitness Mangement)

CrossFit Level 1

My fitness journey started at age 7 with 10 years of gymnastics. I graduated from University of Delaware with a degree in Physical Education, concentrating in Fitness Management. Throughout college and after, I continued participating in a variety of exercise classes, everything from step and aerobics to spin, bootcamp, and body pump.

About 10 years ago, I was working out on an elliptical at a local fitness center and watching the CrossFit Games on television. I thought to myself, ” I can do that! It looks fun and competitive.” The next day, I signed up for CrossFit and never looked back. It was perfect fit, especially with the gymnastics elements involved.

I am now a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer, and I specialize in running Unlock’s Gymnastics class, Gymnasty! There is nothing more satisfying to me than helping an athlete learn a new skill, especially a gymnastics skill!

I love the competitive side of CrossFit as well, and have qualified for the second round of the CrossFit Games, the Age Group Qualifier, four times in the 45-49 age group as one of the top 200 athletes worldwide in my division. Representing Unlocked at various team competitions has been very rewarding as well. I am grateful to be part of such a fun, friendly, and supportive community.
