When did you start doing CrossFit?

September 2013

What were you doing before Crossfit?

Running a few miles here and there

Tell us something we might not know about you.

I used to be a cheerleading instructor for UCA and I still like to impress my kids by flipping around in the backyard and at the trampoline park

What advice would you give someone just starting at Coyote?

To stick with it and don’t hesitate to ask the coaches for help if you are struggling!  Even if you can only come once or twice a week at first, keep doing that consistently!! Celebrate even the smallest improvements that you make.

Has CrossFit affected your life outside of the gym?

Absolutely.  I feel much more confident facing a challenge at work or in my personal life than I used to.  My perspective seemed to change when I realized that I was physically capable of so much more than I thought.

Tell us a little about yourself (family, job, sports, interests, etc.)

I am a pharmaceutical sales rep and I have three young girls and a husband named Richard.  We love Mississippi State sports, road trips and fishing with our kids.
