It has been a dream of mine to create a dedicated space for middle and high school athletes to workout, build community, and I’m so thankful to partner with Pittman PT. I’m a former D1 collegiate athlete, retired A-10 pilot, current FedEx pilot and CrossFit level 3 coach. When i’m not coaching, I’m spending time with my family, grilling, or trying to qualify for the CrossFit Games (Or be the best athlete I can be!)

A lawyer-turned-CrossFit coach. I’m passionate about helping kids gain confidence through weight training and metabolic conditioning. I am a CrossFit-Level 2 coach, as well as a certified personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine. I used to practice law, but I found my true calling in the world of fitness. I am blessed to enjoy every single second of training adults and children. It’s never work for me, and I hope to share that passion with your children. When I’m not training, you can find me spending time with my little family. I can’t wait to help your kids gain confidence in and outside of the gym! It’s my priority to keep them safe by introducing mechanics of movement, practicing consistency, and then adding in variables to challenge them relative to their individual skills and proficiencies.
