About

* CF-L1
Darcey is originally from La Jolla, San Diego and as most Southern California kids she spent her childhood either on the beach or doing a myriad of outdoor sports while living off of burritos. She grew up playing competitive club soccer while also being dedicated to gymnastics and tennis. In 2016, while learning to become a physician assistant in graduate school, a friend introduced her to Crossfit and she was hooked. It combined her love for endurance, gymnastics and strength with the nostalgia of team camaraderie.
She has persevered through shoulder injuries to return to full gymnastics capability and inspires others who are returning back from injuries that they can return too. Her medical background in emergency medicine and urgent care gives her a foundation for ensuring proper mechanics and safety with her athletes while pushing them to progress with their personal goals.
She firmly believes that fitness and nutrition is the key to maintaining lifelong health. If you are considering Crossfit for the first time, she is someone who can make the uncomfortable more comfortable. You will find her greeting newcomers with a warm welcome.
