Coach Leah was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania but grew up in the Schuylkill County area. She spent her early adult years living in the State College and Harrisburg areas before returning to Allentown in 2022.
Leah has been coaching since 2019 but joined Parkettes in November 2022. She currently coaches toddler, preschool, and recreational classes as well as the Parkettes Excel Bronze team. In addition to all her coaching duties, Leah is also a certified judge for Levels 4/5 and Excel.
Previous to Parkettes, Leah discovered her love for coaching and teaching children through Centre Elite Gymnastics in State College, Pennsylvania where she also enjoyed the position of assistant coach to the T&T (Trampoline & Tumbling) team.
As an athlete, Leah enjoyed several different sports in addition to practicing gymnastics recreationally. She spent time as a cheerleader, a soccer player, and a track star (sprinting, jumping, hurtles, pole vaulting).
Today, Leah is a key contributor to the Parkettes legacy, inspiring the next generation to not only be the best athletes they can be, but to also be the best person they can be.
