Tell us about your sports & fitness background:

I was always into sports. I played softball growing up, and I was always in the gym because my mom used to coach there.

How did you first get exposed to CrossFit? Take us back to your first WOD... what was it, and how did it feel?

I’ve always been around the gym. My first word ever was “God only knows” and “back squat.”

What sort of changes have you seen in your body, health, and fitness since starting CF (before/after)?

I feel so much more confident in my body. The gym has truly changed my life. The community is what keeps me going.

What sort of changes in your life have you experienced from taking on something like CrossFit that were totally unexpected?

Making lifelong friends and having people to talk to. I’ve also become closer with my family.

Please share with us any favorite CrossFit / CFKSQ moments:

Hacky sacking at the 12:30 during the summer.

Any advice for people just getting started?

It’s not a competition. Have fun and try your best.

What are your hobbies, interests, and/or talents outside of CrossFit?

I like to play flag football, read, do puzzles, and lots of other stuff.
