Bio


 

 

 

I am a professional trail runner and endurance coach with a Bachelor of Science degree from Oregon State University. I've coached endurance athletes for 10 years in everything from 5k - 200 miles. I’m an Oregonian originally and now live and train in Colorado. 

I ran collegiately for a couple years and then got into road marathons. It wasn’t until 2014 that I discovered trail running after an injury from pounding the pavement. I was instantly hooked and jumped into the ultra scene. I’m very competitive so I made it a goal to become an elite trail runner. I accomplished that goal in 2015 and won the 50 mile USATF Trail Championships as my first race as a professional. After that, I traveled the world and raced as many of the top trail races I could, including Western States 100, UTMB, CCC, Tarawera and Ultra Trail Capetown.

Trail running also led to meeting my partner, Justin Grunewald, at the 2020 Bandera 100k. We now have two daughters who have already been immersed in the sport. Training and racing with kids adds a few challenges, but all of it means so much more with them.

This sport has changed my life in so many ways and I hope to inspire others to pursue their passions. I especially want parents to feel supported and know they can still chase their dreams and goals while having a family.
