Bio: Stef stumbled upon CrossFit by accident in 2015, when she was invited by some friends to join a free intro class.  Enticed by the playground-esque vibe of the box, she went from being a calorie-counter to a rep-counter in quick order and has never looked back.

 

Stef loves introducing CrossFit to new people who might feel intimidated, by making the sport approachable and by always offering positive reinforcement.  She believes everyone's fitness journey looks different but we all start somewhere!

 

A dentist by day, Stef is also kind of a nerd - she enjoys the technicality and precision of Olympic lifting and learning about how CrossFit methodology can improve your overall health.
