​

I’ve been racing triathlons since 2003 and last year I returned to the sport after the birth of my beautiful baby girl.  The journey to the finish line has filled my life with both physical and mental challenges.  Along the way I’ve met many lifelong friends, including my best friend and husband.  To date I’ve completed numerous races including six IRONMAN events and raised $70K+ dollars for cancer and brain tumor research. Most recently I’ve raised funds for Keep Tahoe Blue in partnership with our Ironman Foundation Newton Running team.

 

I am incredibly fortunate to be able to support and inspire the communities that we race in as a team.  While I balance being a devoted Mom and Wife, a Sales Executive and an IRONMAN triathlete, I hope to inspire my daughter and many others to set their goals high and find a cause greater than their own!  I’m honored to be a part of the IRONMAN Foundation-Newton Running Ambassador team for a second season as I train for many races including Ironman Canada and Ironman Arizona.
