Tell us something people might not know about you
On my off time I love spending time with my family and friends, traveling, and going on a camping trips. And most of all I love my beer and wine.
What brought you to CrossFit in the first place?
I was tired of doing the gym thing and I wanted something different so my friend Lynn told me I should try going to Beachside with her, and I did. That was seven years ago and I’m still here.
What was your first impression? How has it changed?
My first impression was that it was really hard. Every time I would walk through the door I would get anxiety. But as time went on I enjoyed coming to Beachside.
What was your first bright spot?
My first bright spot at Beachside was when I finally learned how to do double unders. It took me forever!
What are you working on now?
I would love to learn how to do butterfly kipping pull-up’s.
What is your favorite Beachside memory?
One of my favorite memories at Beachside was when I learned how to do a kipping pull-up without a band!
