Group crossfit coach

1:1 Coach

CF L1

"I got into CrossFit as soon as I graduated high school. I didn’t know who I wanted to be, but I knew I wanted to be strong. As the years went by, I realized I absolutely loved going to the gym. It’s a safe haven for me from all the stress that being an adult is."

"I decided to become a coach so that others like me can feel safe and comfortable at Beo. 7 years later, married with 1 cat, and I’m still trying to figure out who I want to be, but one thing is for sure, I love coaching/working out at Beo."

BEO STRENGTH & FITNESS INSTRUCTOR

CF L1

Gymnastics Specialist

"I was born and raised in Omaha, NE and spent the majority of my life competing and eventually coaching gymnastics.In 2001 I earned a BS in Exercise Science and have been working in the fitness industry ever since.

"My husband and I moved to Dakota Dunes in 2010 and I was introduced to CrossFit in 2013. I immediately fell in love with it and have never looked back. The diversity along with the learning and building of new skills is what I love most about CrossFit. It also helped spark the competitive fuel that I missed after my gymnastics days were over.

"Outside of the gym I love spending time with my husband, Dave, and my two sons, Zach 11 and Zane 9. We love traveling and attending lots of sporting events!"
