Based in Bend, Oregon, I work with athletes nationwide, across all ages, genders, and abilities in mountain biking, road, and gravel. I have a special passion for supporting time-crunched parents and professionals, women in midlife, and anyone seeking to enhance their overall health and wellness through sport. As a data-driven coach, I deeply value my athletes' subjective feedback to craft highly successful, individualized programs.
My journey began in 2000 when I joined Northern Arizona University’s Division 1 collegiate cycling team as a novice mountain biker. Through dedication and hard work, I advanced from a total beginner to a Pro-level athlete in cross-country mountain biking and achieved Cat 2 status on the road. My experience spans a range of disciplines, including Endurance MTB (50 & 100-mile events), XTERRA, Criteriums, Time Trials, Stage Races, Hill Climbs, Cyclocross, and Gravel.
In 2004, I began my coaching journey as a mountain bike instructor at NAU, where I discovered a deep passion for helping others excel in the sport I love. From 2010 to 2012, I served as the head cycling coach for a triathlon training program in Hawaii, leading mountain bike skills clinics to prepare triathletes for XTERRA events. It was also during this time that I started teaching yoga for athletes, addressing the community’s growing need for athletic self-care.
In 2013, I transitioned into personal coaching, where my expertise in training methodology and enthusiasm for one-on-one coaching truly came together. Today, I focus on personal coaching, integrating athletic wellness practices such as yoga, mindfulness, and meditation into my approach.
