About Samantha

I was born and raised in Colorado. I did a wide variety of activities and sports growing up which led me into cross country, track, swimming, ski team and horseback riding in High School. I then modern pentathlon in 2010 to compete and train as an Olympic hopeful. I overcame a lot of injuries and hip surgery to become a 2020 Olympian, 2016 Olympic alternate, and 7 time US National Champion. I began teaching as a Pilates instructor while I was training. Once I retired from pentathlon I continued my passion of learning, working, and helping others with their health and wellness goals!
