Summary
I have been an athlete since high school winning 6 state championships in Track/Cross Country. I went on to run for the University of Washington, University of Mississippi, and now Hoka currently. I have had a lot of experience having to integrate with new groups of people. I have also lived a life of intense discipline for many years now. I have lost my passion for running and have come back to school at the University of Colorado. I will be pursuing other passions of mine and have quite enjoyed being back in my home town of Boulder.
