As a dynamic and driven professional with over a decade of experience in the sports and wellness industry, I started my career steering towards journalism with dreams of sharing stories. Working in communications and media for professional league sports teams, I brought stories to life for print and video and formed a deeper understanding of the power of storytelling and human connection. 

With a particular love for human interest stories, I have always been drawn to the moments and tales that brought out the personal side of athletes. This inspired me to pursue a master’s in Human Performance and Well-Being, specializing in Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology, and become a coach. By helping others build a foundation rooted in performance and well-being, I hope more people will be inspired to go after their dreams and live their incredible stories. This idea is conceptualized in a motto I utilize in group and individual coaching, Root. Rise. Shine.

( The fun part of the bio) I am a Florida State University graduate - go Noles! Yogi Berra is my favorite athlete of all time. I have a 2017 World Series ring and the Championship parade is probably my favorite sports memory. Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift are my most-played artists on Spotify. My favorite (maybe) movie quote is “It’s gotta be that can’t breathe, can’t sleep, reach for the star, over the moon, World Series kinda stuff.” I have a dog bestie named Rosie and am always down for coffee or run meet-ups!
