How did you discover CrossFit? 

On a whim—was looking for a new workout and have always been hesitant to try CrossFit —I got super lucky finding the DeNovo coaches that help me learn along the way and get to get a killer workout. 

What draws you to DeNovo CrossFit?

The people are amazingly supportive and keep me motivated to come back!  

What do you feel is your biggest accomplishment in life? 

My amazing daughter, Juni. :) 

What or who EMPOWERS you at DeNovo? 

The entire community empowers me each time I come to the gym—even my years in the military don’t compare to the support at DeNovo. 

What is your favorite way to use your fitness outside of the gym? 

Snowboarding and Mountain Biking—let it snow! 

What is your pet peeve? 

Not finishing the last set before time is up!

Favorite workout song.

Favorite CrossFit movement or type of workout? 

This has to be a trick question—all of them, except burpees.

What advice would you have for anyone who is nervous to join DeNovo? 

Take the leap and let the community show you how easy it is to go at your own pace and still feel challenged. 

What do you do professionally?
