She was a competitive gymnast for 16 years and went on to compete with Miami University’s club team.

Rachel 's coaching background includes working with boys, girls, parent-child, and beginner recreational up through Level 3. For the previous 3 years Rachel was also a judge up through Level 8! Over her past 6+ months in the Gym Jam Program, I have gotten to see Rachel's dedication and creativity, and her commitment to finding solutions. She has been masterful with curriculum development, staff training initiatives, and parent communication. I am incredibly excited to welcome Rachel to our leadership team, and I am excited to kick off 2024 with her at the helm.
