Ada’s interest was piqued with CrossFit in the Fall of 2009 when a summer stock coworker living in Texas suggested she try it. She began her CrossFit journey with CrossFit GOTHAM, operating out of the shared space of a church basement gymnasium on E51st St in NYC just over a half mile run from her home on the Upper West Side. She was drawn to the expression of strength with the balance of technique and the need to understand your body’s own capacity.

Ada was a two season athlete thru college with Swimming and Track and Field.  She leaned into running while in grad school and competed a few marathons but never really liked them.  With traveling while working in the tv and film industry, Ada was always able to find community at the local CrossFit gym, a home away from home.  Since starting Crossfit she has completed in local Crossfit events, ToughMudder, and Warrior Dash.  In 2015 she was inspired to race triathlons at the Olympic and Half Ironman distances, winning her division at the NYC Tri four years in a row and competing at Nationals.

Ada moved to Lititz in March of 2020 to start a family in her home and at her new Box.
