Coach

ome of my greatest strengths as an athlete and coach come from the motivation and determination I bring to long-distance training. I’ve developed a strong sense of work–life balance, especially while managing the demands of a toddler and another child on the way. I set realistic, meaningful goals, and I don’t let setbacks define me—failure simply motivates me to try again with even greater focus and resilience.

Qualifications

I hold ACE certifications in both Personal Training and Group Fitness, and with over 12 years of experience working with clients of all ages and ability levels, I’m able to adapt any workout to meet an individual’s specific needs. My goal is to create safe, effective, and enjoyable training experiences for every athlete I work with.

About Coach

I’ve been a runner my entire life, and it has carried me through both the highs and lows. I bring that same perspective to my coaching—recognizing that everyone comes with their own goals, motivations, and challenges. My aim is to make each workout the best part of an athlete’s day, creating an environment where they feel supported, motivated, and empowered to grow.

Some of my proudest accomplishments as a runner include qualifying for and completing the Boston Marathon twice, finishing a 50K ultramarathon, and running 100 miles in 10 days annually—even while 32 weeks pregnant. I also completed the New York City Marathon less than five months after giving birth to my son. These experiences have strengthened my belief in resilience, consistency, and the power of setting meaningful goals.

Turning Point

My turning point came three and a half years into pursuing my elementary education degree, when a conversation with the student teacher I was working with helped me realize the importance of prioritizing my own happiness. As a lifelong people pleaser, I was struggling with self-doubt and the fear of disappointing my teachers and parents. She reminded me, “You’re the one who has to do this 8+ hours a day, five days a week, for many years—so make sure you’re happy doing it. Anyone who truly supports you will want that, too.” That message stayed with me.

I completed my degree, but I followed the pull toward what genuinely inspired me—exercise and sport science—while knowing my education background would always remain valuable should I ever want to return to it.

Motivation & Passion

My purpose for coaching is to empower others the same way running has empowered me—to be a steady source of motivation, support, and belief as they pursue their own version of success.
