Hi, I’m Kiera! I am from Smyrna, Georgia, and I'm currently studying Business Management at Appalachian State University. I’m so excited to be part of the C45 team. My climbing career started when I was a little kid and my dad took me to a gym on a rainy day. I’ve been hooked ever since. After a few summers of kid’s climbing camps, I joined Team Stone Summit at age 12. I trained and competed in local, regional, and divisional competitions across the Southeast for nearly eight years, until aging out of the youth USA climbing circuit. As the sport continues to grow, especially with its inclusion in the Olympics, I’m passionate about guiding that growth in a positive direction. I’m committed to supporting young climbers in both recreational and competitive settings, indoors and outdoors, while helping foster a love for climbing that lasts a lifetime. During a session we will focus on building technical skills, a solid warm up routine, and training plans tailored to your personal goals. I work with beginner to intermediate climbers (around the V0-V4 range) and I specialize in working with youth climbers.
