I am Active Duty Military, Coast Guard Officer & currently reside in Virginia Beach, with my pups Charlie & Sploot.

I was raised & groomed into a competitive swimmer; swam year round, for my Middle & High Schools, for the U.S. Coast Guard Academy (D3) & now compete as an adult (US Masters and USA Swimming). I have over 22 years of competitive swimming experience across Short Course Yards & Meters, Long Course Meters & Open Water Swimming.

I started weightlifting in 2017 & fell in love with the sport. At first I did only Powerlifting; however, in Summer of 2020 I picked up Olympic Lifting. I currently train as a Super Total Lifter (Squat + Bench + Deadlift + Snatch + Clean & Jerk). I am currently in the process of obtaining my Level 1 Olympic Weightlifting Coaching Certification with a Qualification Date of May 22nd.

I have been a swim coach & instructor since 2010; coaching ages 5 years old to 80 years old across four teams (due to moving with the Military).

From '20-'21, I oversaw the health, fitness & wellness of 3,000 Active Duty Members at my unit. I managed & executed several fitness challenges & wrote training plans for members.
