Sports Background

Tiffany was introduced to the field of physical therapy as an elite high school runner. When an injury resulted in discussions of surgery and a long recovery period, she felt that was the last option if she wished to continue running competitively. As a result, she discovered physical therapy. With months of extensive balance, personalized strengthening and sports conditioning, she was successful in running in state championship events and setting school records. Through injury remediation with physical therapy, Tiffany also found swimming and began competing the remainder of her high school athletic career. Tiffany later went to run at Texas A&M University, one of the nation’s top track and field programs. She was also recruited by various college swimming programs but felt running was truly where she belonged due to the mindful and meditative nature of the sport.  

While at Texas A&M, Tiffany competed in both Cross Country and Track. She was a member of the first team to upset Arkansas for the first time in over 10 years at the regional level, earning a birth into the NCAA Championships.  

Upon completion of her NCAA career, Tiffany felt the need to continue competing and discovered cycling. During graduate school, she competed for The Ohio State University women's cycling team. Placing at cycling nationals earned her an invite to the Olympic Development camp later that year.  Since retiring from collegiate racing (running and cycling), Tiffany has maintained an active lifestyle as a Bombay Bicycle Club member in Madison for several years. She is also a certified ski instructor through the Professional Ski Instructors of America and can be found teaching throughout Southern Wisconsin.  Tiffany continues her involvement in NCAA athletics as the team physical therapist for University of Whitewater Athletic Department.
