U.S.A.W. Club Coach - Level 1

I’m a student at CSU Stanislaus working on my B.S. in Biology with a minor in Chemistry.
Played tons of soccer growing up, it was my life and I loved every second of it.
I love Crossfit, started when Modesto opened. Helen was my first WOD I did it with my BJJ instructor Alex using a dumbell for swings and towel thrown over a beam that held up the boxing heavy bags. Got my ass handed to me and almost threw up. I’ve been hooked ever since. Every time I hear Helen now I wanna puke. Love boxing and trail running, anything that keeps my adrenaline pumping and challenges me.
I’m a Blue Belt under David Camarillo in Guerilla Jiu-Jitsu. In October ‘09 I took gold in the U.S. Open.
The main reason I love Crossfit is because of CF Modesto. It feels like home every time I walk in the gym. Besides my BJJ gym Ultimate Athlete it’s the only place where people really understand me. CF is a big reason I was able to win gold and earn my blue belt.
