"Not your average California Girl! I have always been passionate about being on two wheels. When I was 7 my dad got me my first cross country mountain bike. I absolutely loved it, and by age 10 I competed in my first mountain bike race in Big Bear, CA. I guess I have been hooked on bikes ever since. Being outdoors, in nature, constantly challenging myself mentally and physically is where I truly feel alive! I am lucky to be able to do what I love for a living, and believe me, I never take it for granted."
