More About Me
I am an elite pole vaulter training in pursuit of the 2024 Olympics. I am originally from Waynesburg, PA. I attended Westminster College in Pennsylvania, where Bradi Rhoades was my coach. There, I won the National Championship and attained the meet record after overcoming an injury that was said to be "career ending" by doctors. In college, my major was early childhood and special education. In 2017, I moved to Knoxville, Tennessee to train professionally with Olympic gold medalist, Tim Mack. My training continues in Knoxville currently, now coached by world-class pole vaulter, Mark Hollis. I train full-time with Mark's elite group of vaulters, called Full Vertical Elite. Another US elite pole vaulter, Jeff Coover coaches me in my sprinting/lifting training. My personal best is 4.42m (14 ft 6 in) as of the 2021 outdoor season. To fund my aspirations in pole vault, I am a substitute teacher and teach English online to students in China. I also am a one-on-one tutor/cognitive brain trainer and am currently working on my master's in school counseling.
