I am 30 years old and currently live in Cleveland, OH with my husband, Jeff and 18 month old daughter, Sofie. I work full-time as a pharmaceutical sales consultant for Bayer Healthcare.
My past sports accomplishments include being a two-time US Olympian in the sport of short track speedskating. I competed in both the 1998 and 2002 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan and Salt Lake City, USA in the Women’s 3000 m relay event. I have also won numerous Short Track World Cup and World Championship medals and was the youngest woman to ever qualify for a Short Track World Championship team at the age of 13. I am a 7-time National team member, 4-time Senior American Record Holder and 5-time Junior American Record Holder.
As a retired Olympian, my current goal is to get back into shape! I love to run, so I would also like to run a few races once I am back in running form.
