Growing up, I actually did not have a great understanding of fitness or nutrition, but I was an active kid. I cannot remember much of a time when I was inside, because I was either running, jumping, or falling- giving my mother a heart attack. I was involved in multiple sports from baseball to rodeo, and it was not until later in my life that I developed the connection between CrossFit and the sports I use to participate in.
After a short stint in college baseball, I needed to find something to fill my need for competition. I had done a few CrossFit workouts before college, but I truly discovered CrossFit in 2017 while I was attending Sul Ross State University. After a few weeks, I completely felt my passion for CrossFit and fitness develop. I began my coaching journey in 2018 by attaining my CrossFit Level 1 Trainer certificate. Not only was I able to fill my need for competition, but I realized the passion I had for helping others better themselves to live a healthy and full lifestyle.
I coached for several years at a few different gyms and have loved every minute of it. With a year gap, I got the opportunity to become a coach at CrossFit Longma which helped me utilize my passion for helping others. My goal as a coach is to create an environment around fitness that is sustainable for an entire life starting from young kids to adults. My motivations are my passion for fitness and my desire to give everyone the opportunity to learn and create a positive experience. In turn, I hope that will lead to a continuous drive to keep returning to the gym to create a positive future around fitness.
