Nutrition & Wellness Health Coach
I was born and raised in Northeast Missouri. My days were spent in the gym playing basketball or traveling around the state for competitive softball. Sports were a huge part of my life and I also continued my athletic pursuits in college. After college, I jumped into the coaching side of athletics until I met my husband, Blair. We have grown our family to include three girls and we have lived in Columbia for the past nine years.
After becoming a mother, I struggled with weight gain and lost myself in the trenches of motherhood. In 2019, I took charge of my health and wellness and began strength training on my own. After years of working out alone, I knew I was missing the community that a gym provides. I had my eyes on CrossFit Verus for months, before being approached about assisting with the high school program. I began working out at Verus in October 2023 and fell in love with the training right away. I wish I would have started sooner!
I am highly motivated to build my strength, but I love (even more) watching others crush their goals. I enjoy working with people who, maybe don’t believe they can achieve a goal because they never have, but end up realizing they CAN. It’s inspiring to see my athletes approach new challenges with confidence. There is no greater reward than the gratitude of helping someone else become their best self.
