I grew up in track, cross country, and wrestling because it was fun and exercising always felt right. But I didn't know it would save me during the pandemic and beyond. When it started I tore my quad, lost my job and my home, lived in my car and stayed in a toxic, abusive relationship. Fitness became my lifeline. It kept me alive, grounded, create structure, strength, and clarity when everything else fell apart. It helped me survive, rebuild, and grow mentally and physically.
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?I gravitate toward training that builds real resilience. CrossFit, running, biking and rock climbing builds endurance, strength, and real-world athleticism that shows up beyond the gym. Yoga made me value mobility and recovery after the injury and helped me with train better and with intensity. Fitness for me is about discipline, mental toughness, and consistency—not just looks, but how it supports long-term strength, willpower, and for me, sobriety.
What would you do with $20,000?I’d give half of it to The Phoenix, an organization that supports people in recovery and helps them rebuild their lives through community, fitness, and accountability. They played a huge role in my sobriety and in keeping me disciplined and focused when everything fell apart. The other half, I’d invest in my growth: covering essentials, certifications, and tools to keep building my career in personal training and in becoming a nutritionist. I want to give back to others on living a healthy life.
