FINDING MY STRIDE

My Story of Running, Racing and Coaching.

2016 MingoMan Triathlon

Since 2009, my running journey has taken me across countless roads and trails, spanning distances from 1 mile to 50k. Along the way, I've tackled sprint triathlons and even ventured into the realm of Olympic distance events. Even while I'm traveling, I make it a point to get out and run in different places. I love being able to say I've run in Mexico, Paris, and London!

My personal experiences as a runner have contributed to my coaching style and philosophy, which is rooted in empathy, encouragement, and empowerment. I aim to guide my athletes to train smart, work hard, and find joy and humor in the journey, empowering them to embrace courage, passion, and perseverance, and to endure challenges with integrity and a bit of grit.

Beyond coaching, I bring my passion for running to my role as an associate at Ken Combs Running Store in Louisville, KY, where I help fellow runners, walkers and every day people find the gear and support they need to succeed. Additionally, I own Radiant Blue Travel, where I design custom vacations to Mexico, the Caribbean, and Western Europe. In both roles, my focus is on personalized service and creating exceptional experiences, whether it’s finding the perfect running shoes or crafting a dream getaway.

I hope to share the transformative power of running and inspire others to discover their own strength, resilience, and potential.
