I've been climbing since I was born. It started with furniture, then trees, then houses. I discovered rock climbing was a sport when I moved back to Tucson in 2012, and I've been hooked ever since. I joined the team at 17 after a couple years gymnastics and made rapid progress. I aged out after only a year but I was working on projects I never could have dreamed of climbing before. I missed the team after leaving, so I started working summer camps and was able to transition to coaching from there. Originally my passion was for bouldering, but after a few minor injuries I've become more involved with lead projects and climbing outdoors, which has only made my love of climbing even stronger.  Being a coach is such an incredible privilege for me. Every practice makes my day.
