Katie started gymnastics at the age of 3 at her local YMCA. She quickly advanced and began competing at the age of 5. She competed until the age of 17 with USAG and AAU and was training as a level 10 gymnast at the time of her "retirement." 

In 2012, she opened a gymnastics and cheerleading facility in NY and trained both recreational and competitive gymnastics and cheerleaders, incluidng her oldest daughter, who won multiple competitions over the years.  Katie also served as a USAG certified judge from 2013 thru 2016.

Besides her love for gymnastics, cheer, tumbling, and teaching children the art of these amazing sports, she is also a Certified Nurse Midwife/Advanced Practice RN and has certification in CPR, Newborn and Pediatric Advanced Life Support, and Advaned Cardiovascular Life Support.

Katie is an ARMY veteran and understands the challenges military families face.  She is very excited to begin offering classes to the children (many of which are from military families) in our community!
