Kit is super serious when working out, but don’t let that fool you, he’s a big social teddy bear when he catches his breath after a workout. Kit is a coach at heart, coming from a decorated high school and college baseball and basketball career. In his ‘spare time’ he also coaches youth baseball and basketball. Due to his passion for serving others, he volunteered as VP on the Board of Directors for the RAD Project non-profit for adaptive athletes. When leading classes, He always inspires you strive for your best, one step at a time. He meets you where you are with patience, thoroughness, a smile, and a high five. He’s a big dude, with a bigger heart for helping people, taking care of them, and making them happy. Kit also loves hugs, so bring it in! Sweaty hugs and all!
