About Coach

Coach Rachel started doing CrossFit in 2013 to prepare for her first mountaineering trip in the Eastern Sierras. She still hikes and mountaineers all over the world, and has summited multiple 5,500+ meter peaks, including Tanzania’s Mt. Kilimanjaro, Pico de Orizaba in Mexico, and Ecuador’s Cayambe. In 2024 Rachel began competing at new levels in CrossFit as a masters athlete, qualifying for worldwide semifinals (2024), earning a bronze medal at Wodapalooza SoCal (2025), and then a gold medal at TFX: The Fittest Experience (2026). Rachel got her CFL-1 and started coaching in 2021, bringing broad experience as a multi-sport athlete. She loves coaching athletes of all levels, believes that anyone can reach audacious goals, and champions training for life and longevity.
