moreGrowing up in Vermont I was immediately placed in a setting that was perfect for endurance sports. Spending many hours running, biking, swimming and cross country skiing during my childhood and now into my adult life has been a huge part of my life and something that I consider to be a gift.
I'm attending Bates College in Maine where I have continued my career in endurance sports. I'm an English major and have a passion for non-profit marketing and development, particularly with environmental NGO's.

Background
I was introduced to triathlon by a family friend who has competed at many levels for years. He along with a few of his teammates helped me learn the basics of how to combine the three disciplines, two of which, swimming and running, I had competed in before. After this first summer when I was 14 I fell in love with the sport. I have balanced it with another love of mine, nordic skiing, however triathlon has become an addiction that craves all of my attention.
