I’m originally from Layton, Utah, where growing up by the Wasatch Mountains meant splitting my time between soccer and the outdoors. I played D1 soccer at SUU in Cedar City for 2 years. After that, I worked at the university’s outdoor center guiding mountain biking and camping trips, earned a business degree in Hospitality Management, and fell in love with long rides after joining the university’s cycling club (initially with my humble commuter bike).
Since then, I’ve been living in Salt Lake City. I stay involved with nonprofits like Girls on the Run Utah (after school running program) and Little Bellas (mountain bike mentoring). When I’m not volunteering, you’ll find me on group rides in search of coffee and pastries or riding Dry Creek and Bobsled in the foothills.
