I grew a passion for the sport of CrossFit and creating a community like the one I had experienced when I began as an athlete. After 6 months of training, I received my CF-L1 certification and began coaching. After two years, I received my CF-L2 certification. I have participated in 4 local Olympic weightlifting competitions along with many CrossFit competitions. I started coaching CrossFit full time and decided that coaching others is how I wanted to be of service to my community. Being born and raised in the Clearwater, FL area, I feel that it is an honor to be able to create an inclusive and safe space for anyone looking to get fit, make friends, and have some fun.

I was born many, many moons ago in the beautiful island called Philippines. I grew up and finished my Bachelors Degree in Physical Therapy. I moved halfway around the world all by myself when I was 21 years old; got my license in Physical Therapy and have worked in all fields of PT ever since.
I have been doing CrossFit for over twelve years and it has helped me push myself. It made me stronger in mind, spirit, and body. Along the way, I learned to embrace the “never quit” mentality. I never envisioned myself coaching but the path paved itself for me. I believe that paying attention and being a good listener is important in a coach. I love CrossFit because it is exciting, challenging, fun and frustrating. My two favorite WOD’s are Murph and Cindy and my favorite lift is the Deadlift.
Outside the box I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I love to eat great food and try new things. If you see me outside the box and call me Moana, nobody will know who that is; I got the name because, as you will come to know, I moan a lot during the WOD.

I have been doing CrossFit since 2015 after being introduced to the sport by some very good friends. After the first session, the sport of CrossFit immediately became a passion of mine. A few years later, my desire to help others drove me to take the CF-L1 course and start coaching right away. I am very passionate about helping other Athletes, so I continuously read CrossFit Journal articles, watch HQ videos, and research other useful sites to help our athletes achieve their fitness goals. I have also participated in various CrossFit competitions that have been extremely fun and challenging. I genuinely enjoy working together with all the Lineage community as an athlete and Coach.

I started CrossFit in 2017 after becoming tired of the sterile globo-gym vibes and running as my only form of cardio. I didn’t have any direction on programming or diet. After my first CrossFit class, I was hooked! The CrossFit methodology kept my training varied and interesting. The ability to perform a workout in an array of modifications and scalability, made it so that anyone could do a workout in a CrossFit gym. And I loved that! So, I took the time to learn the movements, dial in the nutrition, and grow as an athlete. A few years later, I felt that I was in a place in my life where I could and wanted to make an impact on my community and fellow athletes by helping them become healthier and more fit. This drove me to become a coach at Lineage CrossFit. Today, I am part of an amazing coaching staff who
invest their time and energy into the community and themselves to become better coaches and ultimately better human beings. Outside of Lineage CrossFit, I enjoy craft beer, the outdoors, traveling and spending time with family and
friends and my dog Lilly.

In 2014, my journey with CrossFit commenced as a complement to my cycling routine, which had been put on hold due to an injury. Little did I know that this decision would shape my fitness path profoundly. Armed with a background in exercise physiology, I wholeheartedly endorse the CrossFit methodology as a remarkable avenue for enhancing holistic health, physical prowess, and overall well-being.
The Lineage community holds a special place in my heart. It fosters an enjoyable and motivating atmosphere, where individuals, regardless of their fitness levels, can converge to pursue their objectives day in and day out. This blend of beginners and seasoned athletes collaborating to achieve their aspirations is truly something to be cherished.
Each interaction within the Lineage community is a humbling and motivational experience. The camaraderie and dedication displayed by every individual I encounter continuously inspire me. I’m genuinely grateful for the privilege to train alongside and offer guidance to such an exceptional and enthusiastic group of individuals.

Clearwater born and raised. I was always involved in sports, specifically golf and soccer growing up. I played both competitively for years. After not doing anything active for about 7 years, I joined Crossfit in search of a better version of myself in 2021. Crossfit gave me the competitive spirit I had been missing for years. After quickly falling in love with the methodology and the strong community aspect of Crossfit, I obtained my CFL1. Coaching quickly became a passion for me. Seeing athletes hit their long term goals brings just as big of a smile to my face as it does theirs!

I started CrossFit in July 2018 and loved both the humility of the sport and the sense of community I felt when I walked through the doors. Over the years, my passion grew and I obtained my CF-L1 in 2023. CrossFit has become my source of refuge in this hectic world and I love that I get to help other athletes learn to build not only their strength and endurance, but also their self confidence. We see athletes on their good days and bad, through their triumphs and challenges. It is an honor as a coach to be part of the journey.

My CrossFit journey started in 2018 in Seattle, WA. After graduating college in 2011, I struggled to find something to fill the void left behind by football and baseball. I dabbled in long distance running, triathlon, and globo gyms, but something was missing. My wife convinced me to try “that CrossFit thing’, and I haven’t looked back. CrossFit combined an effective fitness program, competitive spirit and a community of like-minded individuals. It was exactly what I needed.
After 5 years of experiencing Crossfit as an athlete, alongside hundreds of other people, from every background, I was 100% convinced that CrossFit can change lives, as it has mine. In 2023, I could no longer ignore the pull to get more involved, and received my CF-L1, in hopes of paying forward the knowledge, passion, and motivation my coaches have given me. I’m easy going, soft-spoken, and lead with compassion, empathy, and a drive to help you unlock the best version of you!
