Bio

I began running for fun in college to enjoy the Santa Cruz scenery, and fell in love with it when I moved to Hawaii. It wasn’t until years later that I set my sights on qualifying for Boston. I pursued organized training, where I really learned what I was truly capable of. My marathon PR is 3:24, which qualified me for Boston, and my half PR is 1:36. My favorite distance is the half marathon because the training is just challenging enough to build my strength and endurance, and the distance is fun to race. Running has introduced me to some of the best people I know, and continues to open doors for me. I now live outside of Boulder, CO, where I am reigniting my love of trail running!

I've coached over 150 athletes, both online and in person, with Fleet Feet. I have had couch to 5K athletes who found a new passion after training with me, up to marathon athletes that have ran for many years and still learned something new with my guidance. My athletes will find success in training if they are willing to put in the work. Follow your training plan closely and please use me as a resource for questions or concerns along the way. One of my particular points of emphasis is running form. It is a basic part of running that can make a huge impact on your efficiency and efficacy.

My philosophy is, "put in the work to redeem the reward." My commitments to you are communication, good listening, motivation, and accountability. I will encourage you through conversation, laughter, and the occasional tough love. You are not in this alone. Pinpoint your "Why" and let's use teamwork to achieve your running goals!

Community

The camaraderie of training with a group week after week will take your training to the next level. When the training gets more rigorous, you'll have the collective strength of the group to keep you moving forward. When you crush a key workout, the group will be there to celebrate your achievement. And when you just don't feel like running, the training group will keep you accountable.
