I am an avid runner and triathlete as well as a Certified Triathlon and Running Coach. Running changed my entire life when I was in college and overweight. I have worked in the fitness industry as a trainer and coach for over a decade. I am a familiar face in Tri Club of San Diego - so if you dabble in triathlons, it is likely that we have met!

I am excited to coach the Thursday night workouts for SDTC and get to know all of you! I love helping others get faster and stronger and get more excited seeing you guys reach your goals than reaching my own. My goal is to help all of you and continue to help grow our community and the love of running.
