Olivia got started CrossFitting from an early age. After her parents opened their own CrossFit gym in Madison, WI, she got started with CrossFit group classes at age 11. As soon as she was old enough, she got her Level 1 CrossFit Trainer certification at age 17. As her passion for coaching grew, she got her Level 2 just two years later. 

As a student at Georgetown University, Olivia found herself moving from Wisconsin to DC, now studying Linguistics, Chinese, and Pre-Med. She was eager to find a new home away from home in the CrossFit Rosslyn community. She plans to attend medical school after graduation but will keep coaching and CrossFitting!

Starting CrossFit at such a young age, Olivia is intimately familiar with scaling and is passionate about helping others find the best scaling and modifications to match both the intended stimulus of the workout and every individual athlete’s abilities and goals. She loves digging into the fundamentals of movements to help athletes build a strong foundation upon which to grow stronger, faster, and better reach their goals—whatever they may be!
