Introduction

I can't imagine my life without sports. I began swimming competitively at 9 years old. I was a captain of the Bolles School swim team when we achieved our 3rd straight HS 1-A National title, ran varsity track & field, swam at the NCAA Division 1 level for Colgate university, and joined Colgate’s club rugby team for the 2019 spring season.

After college I completed the 2023 Woodlands Ironman triathlon. While training myself for that race I realized that I loved the gym more than the classroom, completed my NASM PT certification and became a USA swimming club coach. I love the community and focus on quality physical training  at CAC and am excited to be part of the team. Whether the goals are to increase aerobic capacity, athleticism, train for a marathon or gain a basic foundation of strength, I’m committed to helping every member reach their goals in a safe and effective way.
