who i am

I am a certified League Cycling Instructor with the League of American Bicyclists and have successfully guided students of all ages to safely and confidently riding their bikes. I’ve worked with both new learners and learners for whom balancing and control hasn’t quite clicked.

It’s not hyperbole when I say I’ve been continually riding since I first learned in a city playground in Brooklyn, New York, many years ago. Always riding for fun, I have and still do explore, commute, run errands, and transport my kids on a bicycle every chance I get. I’ve worked as a bike messenger and am currently a part-time bicycle mechanic. I’ve raced road, track, cyclocross, duathlon, and gone touring.

The bicycle is a wonderful instrument of life and I love sharing my passion by encouraging and helping others to be confident and safe when riding.
