About Brett

I am originally from Milwaukee, WI. I moved to MN in August 2021 and live in Chanhassen with my wife and Aussiedoodle. I work for Steam Logistics in Golden Valley. Some of my hobbies include backcountry hiking and camping and spending time with friends and, of course, doing CrossFit.

Athletic Career

High school:

I played football, baseball, basketball, and rugby. My rugby team won 3 State Championships.

College:

I played baseball at Concordia University Wisconsin for 2 years.

How I Found CrossFit

I found CrossFit back in high school. I would do the WOD on crossfit.com occasionally with my brother and some friends. I didn’t officially start CrossFit until 2015 when I went to a local gym near my house in Milwaukee, WI. I immediately loved it because of its competitive nature and being able to push myself to get better.

Why I Coach

I coach CrossFit because I am passionate about helping others achieve their fitness goals and seeing them reach their fitness milestones. I love helping someone achieve a movement they have been working hard at or struggling with such as getting a first muscle-up, mastering double under, or hitting a PR in a lift.
