Describe a little bit about yourself and your interest in triathlon
After a year of collegiate running, I decided to switch to triathlon and raced on the club team at the University of Colorado. I quickly fell in love with the sport and have continued to race at a competitive level since graduating from CU in 2020. I love the self confidence the sport gives me, as well as the lifelong friendships it has given me! Outside of racing and training, I love to spend time outside, ski, read and cook!
