MY STORY
GirlsForTri is a platform dedicated to helping girls 13 and above, discover their potential in the world of triathlon. I started this initiative because of my own experience competing in triathlons at age 13. I started swimming at 4 and have been a part of many swim teams, including my high school varsity swim team.
​
My first triathlon in 2019 was an exhilarating experience that gave me the confidence to take on many more challenges. I am currently preparing for Ironman 70.3 in the summer of 2024.
While preparing for the triathlon, I realized there weren't many girls I knew of who were training for a similar sport. There were times when I was tired and didn't feel like training or just needed a friend to make my journey better. Since then, I've been working hard to inspire young girls to take on the challenge of triathlon and reach their full potential and thereby become the best version of themselves.
