Hey! I’ve been doing CrossFit since 2013 while I was in college. A coworker invited me to a gym in Madison and I’ve been in love with it ever since. I joined Rocket City CrossFit around 2019 and coaching since 2022. I’ve been to many gyms in the area and I have to say, RCCF is the best community and adopted family I’ve ever seen. I love seeing the members achieve their goals and enjoy the journey. My goal in coaching is to make the class get better and have fun doing it. I’ve used the functionality of CrossFit to do a variety of sports but recently it’s helped me pursue my pro wrestling career. So outside of the gym you’ll see my slamming folks 🫶😘

My turning point was turning Covid, I decided I needed to get better control of my health and get back into shape. I started training consistently during Covid with the Rccf home workouts and quit drinking. My second turning point was my divorce. I took my physical and mental health as main priority. I dove into pro wrestling and focused on getting into the best shape of my life.

I want to encourage everyone to keep going, try new things, it’s ok to look foolish. I want everyone to feel comfortable in my class to feel like they can reach high goals despite how out of reach they may seem
