Tell us something that we would be surprised to know about you! I love to play tennis
Tell us a little bit about yourself. Family, work, outside of the gym hobbies, favorite food, move etc. Help us get to know a little about you outside the gym! Originally from ATL. Went to school at UGA. Bleed red and black (Go Dawgs!!!). I work in finance. Met my best friend and partner for life Lenet at a CrossFit gym in Athens. We have 2 pups. Favorite hobby outside of CrossFit is probably tennis. Also getting into Muay Thai a bit (thank you Nic!). Favorite movie is definitely “Life” with Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence. Favorite food is anything from Chick fil A.
