Summary
I was a gymnast and had the opportunity to compete in multiple state, regional and national level events as an elite gymnast. As a gymnast I learned how to be stoic and calm in stressful situations, how to show integrity when things don't go according to plan, and how to work as a team.
I was also a coach for the sport as well teaching younger athletes. As a coach i took the mantle of a leader with my main focus being on injury prevention and fostering a healthy environment. I have experience with designing and implementing gymnastics training programs for diverse skill levels. Utilizes motivational coaching style to inspire athletes and improve performance and a strong understanding of creating safe and effective training routines tailored to individual needs.
