In 2012, Karen began searching for an exercise regimen that was rigorous yet fun, allowing her to stick with it for the long term. She and her husband, Mickey, tried a free class at a local CrossFit box and both were hooked. In 2021 after many years of CrossFit experience, Karen fulfilled her dream of becoming a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer.
Karen believes nothing in life comes easy. No matter what it is that you want you have to work hard for it. She loves to see people succeed and enjoys helping them meet their goals. She enjoys olympic lifting and strength training. She is a native of Calera and spends her time outside the gym hunting and fishing with her husband and spending time with their two Boykin Spaniels, Briggs and Braxton.
