As long as I can remember, I have loved running…Fast, slow, short distances, long distances. I am excited to be coaching Minnetonka Girls Track and Field, allowing me to combine my love of running with my passion for young people. I thoroughly enjoy being around their energy, enthusiasm, and zest for life.

I was inspired by my Dad who was an amazing runner in his high school days in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Wanting to follow in his footsteps, I ran for Eden Prairie in both middle school and high school, enjoying many successes along the way. After high school, I decided to run road races as my life allowed, spanning all of the distances…marathons, half marathons, 10-milers, 10Ks, and 5Ks. Running in races is something that I continue to enjoy.

My job at Minnetonka High School supports the Math and Science Departments and I have my Master’s Degree in Education with my license in secondary Life Science.  I have two awesome daughters, Kate and Kira, and am married to my middle school sweetheart, Eric.
