I have been climbing since 2006, and working at Movement since 2014 as a coach, program manager, and private instructor. I have been lucky enough to work with many amazing coaches and athletes in and outside of Movement, ranging from brand new climbers and coaches to individuals coaching and competing at the national level. I’m still learning, and love being surrounded by coworkers who are passionate and excited to share their knowledge.
