Weโre so excited to be welcoming our new coaching intern, to our team here at Verve! Megan has been shadowing us coaches for a few months now so hopefully many of you have gotten the chance to meet her!
Here are some fun facts about our new friend:
โขIโve been CrossFitting since 2015, and my day-ones are still some of my best friends! ๐ฅฐ
โขI had a Diet Coke obsession long before it was trendy on the internet. (omg coach .z.schmidt.nutrition has a Coke Zero obsession ๐คซ, should we vote which is better?! ๐คฃ)
โขI spent ten years in Boston and watched two of Tomโs championships from the only seat my grad-student budget could afford (my couch). ๐
โขI drink iced coffee year round, no exceptions. โ๏ธ๐ง
โขIโve only worked at footwear and furniture brands, so I can give you unsolicited opinions about your shoes and your sofa. ๐๐๏ธ
Megan, you are going to make such a great addition to our community here at Verve and weโre so happy to have such an enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgeable person joining the fam! ๐ฅณ
