For the last seven years, I have been honing my craft as a succesful Track and Field Athlete. During my time as a UAH Athlete, I was a 2x GSC Conference Champion in the Javelin, 2x Academic All American, and a 2x NCAA DII National Qualifier in the Javelin. I was also a well versed Decathlete and performed at the Collegiate level for three years. Through these experiences, I developed a proficiency in the weightroom and various lifts associated with Power, Strength, and Anaerobic Athletic Performance.

I had the privilege of being the Primary Investigator of a research team in our undergraduate research course at UAH. We utilized Alabama A&M facilities to conduct research on UAH Track and Field Athletes; specifically, track athletes that trainined with distance of 60m-400m. The purpose of our research was to examine the benefit of Panther Teeth (a lace tension device) on sprinters’ times; in correlation, with perceived levels of increased comfort while wearing Panther Teeth on their spikes.

For the past two years, I have been the acting Interim Fitness Manager of the University Fitness Center at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. During these two years, I have planned, facilitated, and organized several events during the Spring, Summer, and Fall semesters. During this time I have accrued over 400 hours of Group Exercise instruction. The classes I specialize in are: TRX Circuits, Bootcamp, MuscleWorks, and any strength format based class. Our goal has been to develop a long lasting culture and enriching environment for our students, staff, and community! With the help of my Fitness Team we seek to build welcoming atmosphere within our weightroom. As always, we will see you at the FIT!
