About Jodi

I was born and raised in the Twin Cities. I spent most summer days on the lake water skiing and working at my family’s restaurant, car hopping. After graduating from Mound Westonka high school, I went on to get a degree in nursing at St. Kates. I have four amazing children and two dogs, a French Bulldog, and a wild and crazy miniature long-haired wiener dog. Fun fact, I love to try new things!

Athletic Background

I pretty much played/tried all the sports growing up. Everything from gymnastics, dance line, volleyball, softball, and all 5ft of me even played basketball! I always needed to be active, but I also needed variety. And…how do you know if you like something unless you try it?!

Finding CrossFit

I was considered your typical “gym rat” until a lifelong friend of mine convinced me to try SISU. Once I stepped in the door, it was all over! There were ropes and rings and rigs and so many things I have never done before! Endless opportunities to challenge yourself in ways I haven’t thought about. It was overwhelming and exciting all at the same time. And then…there are the people. The people that make you excited to come back day after day. It is truly a community of amazing people of all ages and walks of life.

Why I Coach

My passion for working with and helping people achieve their goals. There is nothing better than to see someone accomplish what they thought was impossible.
