Founder and owner of Precision Running Strategies, UESCA Certified Running Coach

I started running in middle school track and hated every minute of it and decided to stick to dancing. I was a ballerina for 20 years and loved every minute of being a dancer. After getting married to my husband, Ryan, I moved across the country from my home state of Michigan to New Mexico. Here after 8 years of swearing off running I decided to sign up for my first half marathon as a way to motivate me to get moving again. I hired a trainer myself and started following a running plan for about a year to prepare me to run my first half marathon. That first half marathon was the most miserable thing I had ever done and swore off running again. Fast forward another 3 years to 2020 and I decided to start running again and I have never looked back. My passion for running finally started and finally understood what a runners high actually was all about.

When I am not running, I love spending time with Ryan and my fur baby Skylar the rescue Australian Shepherd. I also enjoy hiking, going on long walks with Skylar, good local beers, traveling, anything Disney, crocheting, coffee, pizza, baking and Michigan State University Football. On top of all those fun facts about me, I am also a very proud Air Force wife and love living the military spouse lifestyle.
