Chocolate milk
What’s your favorite thing about coaching?
Seeing kids surprise themselves at meets with great performances and the camaraderie and support kids provide each other.
What’s your favorite memory from your time doing track and field?
Taking 1st place in State in the 100m Hurdles and setting the state record. Then in the afternoon I set the record for the 4×400 meter relay and took 1st place in the women’s state championship.
Why do you coach track and field?
I do track and field because I love pushing myself and seeing the results of my hard work. I coach because I love to see kids increase their confidence, skill, and performance; knowing that they can do amazing and hard things.
What do you love about Wolfpack?
Everybody working for the same goal: working hard, having fun, and improving personal performances.
