I grew up in the city of San Francisco playing a variety of sports and outdoor games until declaring basketball my favorite and continuing to play through college. It was my high school coach who first taught me the concept of a comfort zone and more importantly how to get out of it. What makes getting uncomfortable so appealing is the opportunity it provides to grow and discover just how capable and resilient we are. I am always looking for body of water to submerge into, so if you come across an ocean, lake, river, stream, or fjord that looks frigid, I’m in!
