I come from a youth, all-star and college cheer background with 20 years of experience. I have been coaching cheerleading for 12 years. This is my third year as the junior rhinos 14U head coach. I look forward to another year of growing our athletes and preparing them for the high school level.

I’m so excited to head coach for the 11U STUNT team this year! I previously was an assistant coach for the 2025 11U season and am excited to bring the knowledge and experience I gained into this year’s season. I’m passionate about building strong, confident athletes through proper technique, trust, and teamwork. Safety is always my top priority as I help athletes grow their skills, confidence, and love for STUNT.

I’m so excited to be returning for my second year as the Mascots Head Coach as well as stepping into my new role as the 8U STUNT Head Coach this season! Cheer has been a huge part of my life when I started in middle school and continued all the way through college, and my love for the sport has truly never left. 

 Now, as a mom of four very active kiddos (one in cheer and one in football), I feel incredibly lucky to bring that passion full circle and share it with our athletes. One of my favorite cheer memories was performing on the field, feeling the energy of the crowd and the strong connection with my team. That confidence, teamwork, and joy is exactly what I hope to continue to pass on to our Mascots and 8U STUNT athletes. 

At these ages, it’s all about building confidence, learning fundamentals, and having fun in a safe, supportive, and positive environment. Whether it’s introducing the basics of cheer or helping our 8U athletes grow their skills and teamwork in STUNT, my goal is to make every athlete feel encouraged, capable, and proud of themselves. I’m looking forward to an unforgettable season filled with growth, smiles, and lots of cheer. Let’s make some amazing memories together. Go Rhinos!
