About Coach

What do you love most about coaching or CrossFit in general?

What I love most about coaching sports and CrossFit is watching individuals discover they're capable of more than they thought possible. Whether it's a young athlete learning a new skill, someone hitting a personal best, or a person simply gaining confidence in themselves, being part of that growth is incredibly rewarding.

KCI creates an environment where hard work, perseverance, and community come together. I enjoy helping people build not only physical strength but also resilience, discipline, and self-belief that carries over into all areas of life.

What small, consistent habit has made the biggest difference in your own fitness?

Prioritizing movement every day has made the biggest difference for me. It doesn't have to be intense—just making sure I stay active, whether through coaching, walking, training, or mobility work. That daily commitment keeps me feeling better physically and mentally and makes it easier to stay on track long-term.

Outside the gym, what does it mean for you to be “FIT?”

Being FIT means being capable. I want the strength, endurance, and resilience to coach three sports, keep up with five kids, and be fully present for the people who matter most. For me, fitness isn't just about performance in the gym—it's about having the energy and capacity to live the life I want to live.

Come to me if you need help with…

Come to me if you need help with youth athletics, building healthy habits, improving movement fundamentals, or finding ways to stay fit while balancing a busy life. I believe fitness should be challenging, fun, and sustainable, and I enjoy helping people gain confidence in themselves both inside and outside the gym.
