MEET YOUR COACH!

Hello! I am so excited to be a part of MJP as head coach.   I’ve loved cheerleading since my freshman year of high school.  That feels like a lifetime ago now, some of my fondest memories of that time were with my cheer squad.  There is nothing like the friendships you make as a cheerleader, they are truly unforgettable.   

Fast forward some 20 years later and I’m now a wife  and mom of two beautiful girls.     I am an Organizational Change Manager at a leading healthcare organization and a group fitness trainer at a local fitness studio part-time.    When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me hanging out BBQing, catching a Cardinals game, or snuggling on the sofa to watch football or a good movie. 

I am looking forward to the  MJP Football and Cheer season.   We're gearing up to tackle new cheers, dances, and stunts, pushing ourselves to new heights.  But through it all, we'll find joy in the journey, laughter in the struggles, and satisfaction in our progress.  Together, we'll embrace the hard work, celebrate the victories, and make unforgettable memories along the way!   Thank you for trusting me with your cheerleader!
