About Eric
Eric is an environmental geologist turned stay-at-home dad turned CrossFit coach. He started CrossFit in Denver, Colorado in 2012 to prepare for an obstacle race. He never really liked burpees, but kept coming back to CrossFit for the people and the sense of achievement after each and every workout. Father to two girls, he knows his way around tea time and tutus as much as clean and jerks. When not at CrossFit Optimistic you will find him with his family playing board games, brewing beer, woodworking, and/or reading. Eric holds his CrossFit Level 1OL Training Certificate.
