About Me:
I have maintained an active lifestyle since I started running Cross Country and Track & Field in high school. In college, I began running further distances - starting with road half-marathons and eventually branching out to 50-kilometer trail races and other ultra-marathons.
I obtained an M.S. in Sport and Exercise Science in 2019. Pursuing my degree granted me opportunities to work with both collegiate athletes and clinical populations. Clinically, I’ve worked as an intern at a cardiopulmonary rehabilitation facility and part-time at a medical fitness and wellness center.
After college, I began my YMCA career and gained tremendous experience working with special populations. I’ve worked as a personal trainer, group exercise instructor, and program coordinator for individuals with Parkinson’s disease, cancer survivors, older adults with arthritis, and those with physical and/or intellectual disabilities.
