Do you see that picture of me on the rower? That’s pure joy! The kind of joy that fitness and CrossFit bring to me and to our community!

I first fell in love with CrossFit because it was intense, challenging, and thrilling and it pushed me to become better every day. But what truly made me stay was the community, the people, the support, and the energy that comes with the name CrossFit.

One of my biggest dreams has always been to own my own gym, and I’m finally in the process of making that dream a reality! Here in Santa Cruz, I’ve found a place that feels like where I’m meant to be- the birthplace of CrossFit! A space that embodies everything I love about fitness, growth, and connection.

Now, I’m working to open my own gym! And take it to the next level. I want to revamp the space I found by painting inside and out, new rigs, rowers, and bikes, new apparel, and building an app to make check-ins, scoring and workouts smooth!

To make it all happen, I’m asking for a little help from this incredible community. From any current member anywhere, future members, friends, family, competition buddies, anyone who believes in what CrossFit stands for.

Every bit of support means the world to me and brings this dream one step closer. Together, we can make this dream stronger, brighter, and even more inspiring, a place where we can all grow and thrive.

Come along as I bring this dream to life, for me, for you, and for our amazing Santa Cruz community!
