In her own words…
Everyone has different methods of growth, but my drinks of choice are traveling and training. More specifically, I’ve lived in 15 cities in the past 12 years, I visited 9 countries in the past year and I just moved to Tampa to start a new job with the Yankees as a minor league hitting coach. My training has ranged from being a college softball player, to a wannabe beach volleyball player to now exploring more organic strength with the Ido Portal method and Cross-fit. I also genuinely love meeting people who are what I like to call ‘seekers.’ In all of the traveling that I’ve done, I’ve met some really and truly incredible people have decided to start a podcast to share some of their stories. You can listen to the Theta Wave Podcast here.
One of my main passions is teaching and the biggest outlet for me at the moment is being a strength and conditioning coach. I have worked for 3 different professional baseball organizations in the past 7 years as a strength and conditioning coach including the Houston Astros, St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago White Sox. I was just recently hired as a minor league hitting coach for the New York Yankees. I happen to be the first woman to have worked as a full time strength and conditioning coach and also as a full time hitting coach in professional baseball. Before baseball I worked at LSU, ASU, and EXOS. I also had the pleasure of working with the Dutch national baseball and softball teams last year in Amsterdam while I completed my second master’s degree. Most recently, I worked at Driveline baseball while completing my research in eye tracking for hitters.
