Get to Know Coach! - ACE Certified Personal Trainer - Candidate, ATA Martial Arts Instructor & 2nd Degree Black Belt, Anderson University Baseball Alumni.
My Fitness Journey began early on in life in athletics. I participated in Taekwondo, Baseball, and Basketball throughout my childhood and knew from an early age that an active lifestyle was my passion. Baseball (Pitching) became my passion and took my baseball career to Anderson University, where I graduated with my Batchlor’s Degree in Business Management in 2021.
I had an amazing experience as an AU Raven, throwing significant innings as a starter throughout my career. Adversity came in the form of injuries, missing a full year due to Tommy John surgery, and Osteolysis in my shoulder during my fifth year. I had the honor & opportunity to lead my team as a captain my final year. Working alongside great teammates that pushed me to improve my craft and supported me through setbacks speaks to the winning culture Anderson University Baseball has. The process through these injuries motivated me to take my training to the next level! Even though this was mentally and physically one of most challenging hurdles in my life, it ultimately taught me the importance of perseverance and discipline, fueling my passion for fitness and shaping my commitment to helping others achieve their goals!
My years of college baseball and training in taekwondo have given me a deep understanding of athletic performance and what it takes to build strength, burn fat, and gain mobility. Recently, I’ve begun my studies towards earning my Personal Training Certification (ACE), aiming to take the exam in March of 2025!
