"As a CrossFit Trainer, I have spent countless hours in the gym coaching classes and Personal Training. To say coaching CrossFit is my passion is an understatement. There are so many good things about being a CrossFit Trainer. I love that it gives me the chance to meet new people and introduce them to CrossFit. My goal is to give each individual who walks through the door the best hour of their day and I am not satisfied until I have done so. One of the best things about coaching is being able to help athletes overcome challenges, to push past what they thought was possible."
