My CrossFit Story

I was introduced to Crossfit in 2016 by my dear brother, KC, and loved it right from the start. It is a truly complete fitness program, and I love being part of the global Crossfit community.

Why I Coach

I really enjoy working with and training people who have fitness goals they want to achieve. Helping people achieve their goals gives me immense pleasure and satisfaction.

I enjoy working with newcomers the most because they experience the benefit to their lives so fast. They are really appreciative and grateful. I also enjoy helping our senior members.
