Bio
A friend introduced me to climbing in the beginning of 2011 and I was quickly addicted to tying in, chalky hands, and the feeling of success (and sometimes bitter defeat) that comes with climbing. I was a competitive gymnast for years growing up, but as an adult never found a sport that stuck. Enter climbing. It snuck up on me and filled a need that I didn't know was there. Aside from the obvious physical effects of lat-packs and forearms stronger than your boyfriend's, climbing constantly tests my limits, gives me attainable goals, and brings me to beautiful places with the people I love.
My role on Crux Crush is to represent us competitive, sometimes-too-hard-on-ourselves ladies who need to remember the beauty and fun of climbing. It's easy for us to get caught up in the climbs we didn't send or the grades we haven't reached. I'm here to remind you (and myself) to appreciate the amazing places climbing takes us and that sometimes all you need is your friends, a rock, and some snacks. Never forget the snacks. Oh, and fashion. I love a cute sports bra, a puffy down that doesn't look like you're wearing a sleeping bag, and those climbing pants that give you an amazing butt. So here's to all you strong, stubborn girls who love smacking on some liquid eyeliner after crushing it.
