Bio: Growing up, I valued family, education, and gymnastics very highly. I started gymnastics when I was 7 and began competing at the age of 10. I competed in gymnastics for 14 years. I was never the most talented kid, but was known as the one who was always working the hardest. I began coaching when I was 15, took a break when I was 16, and resumed my coaching career in college. I am currently a graduate student pursuing a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I graduated from the University of Dayton with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. My long term goals are to continue coaching and to help adolescents struggling with eating disorders. I enjoy playing and cuddling with my cat, Rajah.

Fun Fact: I am a Disney Nerd, and my favorite characters are Elsa and Grogu (baby Yoda).
Why I love Coaching: I am extremely passionate about gymnastics, so I love to share that passion with children and help them to enjoy the sport. I also enjoy building the confidence of the kids.
