She was not an athletic kid growing up. It was not until high school, when she joined the tennis team, that her love for fitness began to take shape. When the pandemic hit during her junior year, she picked up resistance training out of boredom and quickly fell in love with the process of getting stronger. What started as a way to pass the time turned into a true passion.

 

She had always heard about CrossFit but did not fully understand it until she walked into CrossFit Newtown in the summer of 2024. She was instantly hooked. She began coaching in the youth program and worked her way up to adult classes, growing alongside the athletes she coaches. What she loves most is the community, and she is grateful every day to be part of it as both an athlete and a coach, helping others realize they are capable of more than they think.
