A life of
nd movement.
Extreme triathlete, ski instructor, and judo black belt. Three disciplines, three stories, and a shared passion for what is built over time.
Three disciplines
n't just a triathlete.
Endurance sports are in the spotlight today, but my athletic journey began long before my first Ironman.
Judo taught me discipline and dedication. Skiing inspired me to return to competition at age twenty-six to fulfill a childhood dream. Triathlon then became the arena for long, extreme, and sometimes downright unreasonable challenges.
