Meet Celeste. She is proud to be a lifelong athlete who picked up playing soccer at age five. Since those early days, she has crossed the finish line of numerous runs, bike rides, and triathlons. She started her CrossFit journey after moving to the Bay Area, searching for a sense of community – much to her surprise, she met her now partner in a CrossFit gym!

After a nomadic, military upbringing, Celeste settled in Northern California. She holds a Master’s in Exercise Science from Chico State. After school, a career in corporate wellness drew her to the marvelous bay area, and she made Santa Cruz home in 2016. You can find Celeste taking on new biking or running trails with her pup, slopping her flock of five chickens, and growing a food forest in her backyard when not in the gym.
