Originally from Rock Hill, SC I moved to Colorado Springs, CO, in 2017 to train at the Olympic Training Center. I studied at Mars Hill University in Sports Recreation Management with minors in Psychology and Business. I started cycling to lose weight. I was 305lbs at my heaviest and endurance sport changed my life – first starting in triathlons I fell in love with cycling and made the transition to track cycling.

I love challenges – all my life I have been told I am too big and I wouldn’t be able to race at a high level. I believe anyone can achieve the goal they set with proper guidance and drive.

I started working with CTS in 2019 as a part of the Athlete Services Team which would later increase my curiosity and love for coaching. I have coached athletes from gran fondos to stage races, all the way to 12 and 24-hour mountain bike events.

Currently I reside in Barcelona, Spain working and sailing with American Magic - 37th America's Cup Challenger.
