2025 Team Resilience

I have been a distance runner since elementary school. Running has always played a huge role in my life– I have found lasting community and a passion for health and fitness. It has also being an integral part of my own mental health journey by creating space for processing my emotions and practicing mindfulness. I have always had two longterm goals for my running journey: run a marathon and coach xc/track.

I have been interested in coaching xc/track since I was 17 years old, a junior in highschool, recovering from a foot injury that resulted in surgery and being unable to run for an entire school year. Last year, I was blessed with the opportunity to coach a local coed middle school xc and track team. Working with younger athletes has been an incredibly rewarding experience so far– teaching them the basics of the sport, instilling confidence in themselves as athletes and individuals, and providing a safe, positive environment for the team to grow and have fun. My main coaching values include building lasting healthy relationships with running/exercise and focusing on the growth of the individual as a whole vs simply an athlete. As I go into my second year coaching, my priorities are to continue to grow and strengthen my values and the program and help each young runner reach their fullest potential.

I chose Erika's Lighthouse as my charity team as their mission clearly aligns with my focus and intentions with coaching. Mental health care for young people is imperative, and schools/athletic programs play such a crucial role in children's wellbeing. Please join me in my efforts to support adolescent mental health care with Erika's Lighthouse!

More Info: Erika's Lighthouse is determined to make sure no young person feels alone in their depression. We are dedicated to creating a community of empathy and education. We create middle school and high school teen depression awareness programs so educators and teens can create safe spaces to learn about depression, letting students know they are never alone, and there is somewhere to turn.
