About

As a Kinesiology student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, I’m working toward a future career in pediatric sports medicine. I want to combine what I learn in school with real experience helping young athletes stay healthy, recover from injuries, and gain confidence through sports and fitness. In Spring 2025, I graduated from Olympia High School while also earning my Associate’s Degree from South Puget Sound Community College through the Running Start program. Along with academics, I’ve spent several years coaching strength training, working with kids, and being involved in athletics myself. Fitness has always been a huge part of my life. I’m a competitive powerlifter, former varsity cheerleader, and strength coach who enjoys helping others reach their goals both in and out of the gym.
