Kaizen Cycling

Beginning in 2001, I helped some new triathletes master cycling. I became a USA Cycling coach and started my own cycling studio. Many OnPoint Fitness and BTA members can attest to the rigors of working out in my studio. I am also an assistant coach with FastChix, a group of woman of color interested in increasing representation with the sport of triathlon.
