The Women in STEM Walkathon isn’t just a scholarship fundraiser, it’s a personal challenge designed to help you build consistency! Meet aka Coach Court who is here to support throughout the month!

is a personal trainer and fitness coach based in Atlanta, Georgia.

She works with runners, athletes, and everyday individuals to help them reach their fitness goals, build confidence, and create healthy habits that become a lifestyle. One of the biggest things she loves about what she does is helping people realize they’re capable of so much more than they think and that you can continue reaching new heights at any age or stage of life.

We’re so excited to have her as our coach throughout the month! She’ll be sharing fitness, movement, and wellness tips to help you stay active, feel your best, and keep working toward your goals.

She’s here as a resource for you, so please feel free to reach out to her with any questions along the way. We can’t wait for a great month together, especially meeting local participants in Atlanta on 10/4. Let’s get moving!
