I was born and raised on a farm in a small town in Wisconsin. I was always an athlete early on, the farm taught me hard work ethics, and being in a class of all boys in middle school taught me to hold my own. I grew up a bit of a tomboy.

After high school I went off to beauty school in Green Bay, WI. That’s where I got my cosmetology license and really dove into my own studies on health and fitness since I didn’t have high school sports to push me anymore. I found a love for running, did multiple fun runs and half marathons.

When I graduated, I moved around to various different states including Florida and Colorado, bringing my paddle board along with me wherever I went - I LOVE paddle boarding. Especially doing SUP yoga.

In 2018 I moved to Alaska where I started taking cycle classes, and totally got addicted to indoor cycling! I met my husband shortly after moving to Alaska and we had a beautiful baby girl who is now 16 months old.
