Tuesday AM Run Coach

RRCA Certified

My running experience runs the gamut. I started running late in life training for a marathon and was hooked. Due to injuries I moved into triathlons and completed a full Ironman. After that, I heard the call of the mountains and trail became my new obsession. I won the 50k at Big Bend, paced one of my closest friends for 40 miles of the FatDog120 in Canada and completed my own 50 miler. The yearn to see how fast I could run brought me back to the road, where I qualified for Boston, and now my marathon PR lives and resides at the Boston Marathon.

Thur & Sat AM Run Coach

UESCA Certified

After growing up playing team sports in the bayou state, I took up running my freshman year at LSU as a way to stay active. What started as an opportunity to clear my head turned into something I would eventually incorporate into my career as a fitness professional. With a background in behavior analysis and an emphasis on cross training for runners, my goal is to teach others how running is far from one dimensional. Strength, mobility, core, and balance are vital in creating a healthy, efficient running athlete.

Wed Discovery Run Lead & Marketing

NOLS WFA Certified

I started trail running in 2015 and never looked back. I love being on the trail with friends and often go for big goals including Javelina Jundred, rim-to-rim-to-rim at the Grand Canyon, and 80 miles at Yosemite National Park. I also co-lead the Big Bend Runcation, which is my favorite trip of the year. Being a back of the pack runner, I enjoy helping new people feel comfortable on the trail while leading the Trail Discovery class. I want everyone to feel like they belong outside and within Trail Roots.
