My mission is to ignite a passion for health and fitness, particularly through the dynamic sport of triathlon. I aspire to inspire individuals to embrace an active lifestyle and unlock their full potential.
Through sharing my own journey as a professional athlete, I aim to provide guidance, motivation, and support to others on their fitness journeys.
Fastest Swimmer
I came out of the water first in 50 minutes during my first professional Ironman at Texas 2022, and often compete in the front pack of pro triathletes in the swim.
Journey to Professional
I turned pro in less than a year, leveraging my swim background to build my biking and running skills. It wasn’t easy starting two new sports in 2020, but I learned a lot from my coach and stayed dedicated.
My journey to becoming a professional triathlete has been defined by dedication, perseverance, and unwavering commitment. From humble beginnings as a collegiate swimmer, I transitioned into the world of triathlon, driven by a relentless passion for pushing my limits.
Through years of rigorous training, competing in local races, and overcoming countless obstacles, I honed my skills and earned my place among the elite ranks of professional athletes.
