I fell in love with gymnastics when I became a “human doll” for my big sister Leah. She would perfect her spotting skills day after day in our garage and we would play gymnastics for hours. The passion I have for this sport has carried me through many aspects in my life.

To be able to share what I do each day with my family is a blessing. The rock in my life is my husband, Al and our 3 children Maila, Cade, and Solei.

For 14 years at Airborne I have been fortunate enough to have experienced and worked with such gifted little athletes and watch them develop into confident, young women.

Being a part of Airborne has given me the opportunity to work and staff some of the best coaches in the country and develop relationships with many wonderful people. It is and continues to be an amazing experience!

I have been involved in gymnastics most of my life both as a competitor and a coach. I started gymnastics when I was seven years old, and have been coaching for more years than I want to mention. I graduated from San Jose State University with a B.S. degree in athletic training with a focus on sports medicine.

I have a 15 year old son who provides me with both my greatest joys and challenges in life and who knows that he always comes first.

What I love the most about being involved in gymnastics is that success can be measured in teaching a toddler to jump, climb, or simply wait their turn, to teaching a young girl to fly through the air and in the thousands of steps in between. What I strive to achieve in our program at Airborne is to give to each person that walks through our doors a positive experience that they will carry with them the rest of their life.
