Indiana

Where did you grow up?
Fort Wayne, Indiana

What schools did you attend?
Ball State University – Dance & Musical Theater

When did you start CrossFit?
Early 2022

What made you start CrossFit?
Honestly watching the CrossFit Games documentaries and deciding- yep, I wanna be that cool and strong. But also, coming from a strong dance background I was always very active but was missing that true strength complement in my life and CrossFit has been the perfect blend for me.

When did you come to SLSC?
August 2022, the day after the big move to Chicago

What do you enjoy about SLSC?
THE PEOPLE. Yes it’s an amazing space to train, but this gym and the people inside quickly became home for me.

What do you enjoy about coaching?
Working with other humans who have specific goals for themselves and being able to be even a small part of that journey is SO fulfilling to me. I thrive off of being able to celebrate other’s ups as well as being that support through the downs.

What would you say to someone who is considering trying out SLSC but is unsure?
Don’t be intimidated! Looks can be deceiving when it comes to an old building with a garage door and the sound of crashing weights, but give us 5 minutes and you’ll see why we call it “family.” SLSC is truly for anyone and everyone.
