Our Coaches

Katie's journey into the fitness industry began with her lifelong passion for athletics, where she found confidence and identity through physical performance. After her athletic career ended post-college, she realized how essential fitness was to her sense of self and became determined to help others discover the empowering effects of movement. As a coach, Katie's mission is to guide individuals in building confidence through the strength of their bodies, always meeting clients where they are while offering supportive encouragement and the occasional tough love.

Katie specializes in supporting individuals recovering from disordered eating, helping them develop a healthy relationship with food and exercise. As a certified recovery coach, CPT, CF-L1 coach, and certified nutrition coach, she finds inspiration in her clients' growth, especially as they gain confidence that transcends the gym. Outside of coaching, Katie enjoys hiking, swimming, and traveling, all of which fuel her belief in training for a life without limitations. She envisions GSC as a community focused on performance, functional fitness, and celebrating what our bodies can do, where every member is supported in achieving their goals.

Lindsey's fitness journey began on the tennis court, where she competed at the collegiate level and coached a university team while completing her master's degree. After graduating, she turned her lifelong passion for fitness and nutrition into a career, becoming a coach in 2018. Lindsey's training philosophy centers on helping individuals make fitness and health a sustainable lifestyle. She focuses on building strength, improving technique, and fostering a mindset that prioritizes growth both physically and mentally. Watching clients discover what their bodies are capable of inspires her daily.

Specializing in strength training, weightlifting, and nutrition coaching, Lindsey takes pride in empowering others to transform their lives. One of her most memorable success stories involves a client who went from zero training experience to building remarkable strength, losing 40 pounds, and developing sustainable habits. Outside the gym, Lindsey enjoys exploring new restaurants, visiting farmers markets, and hiking. She is passionate about fostering GSC's supportive and uplifting community, envisioning it as a space where members can not only achieve their fitness goals but also forge meaningful connections.

Brittany’s path into health and wellness began with a strong foundation in science, earning her Bachelor of Science in Equine Pre-Veterinary Medicine with a minor in biology from Otterbein University, followed by her Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Palmer College of Chiropractic. She discovered her true passion in helping people move with confidence, manage pain, and return to the activities they love. Guided by the belief that health is best improved through movement and a comprehensive lifestyle approach, Brittany empowers those who may feel uncomfortable in the gym to build resilience and lasting confidence.

In addition to coaching some of GSC’s evening classes, Brittany runs her own chiropractic practice inside the gym, where she focuses on movement-based care, injury recovery, and performance support—helping members bridge the gap between training and overall health. She is inspired by individuals who persevere through challenges—values she also lives as an advocate for those with chronic illness, including her own experience with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Outside of GSC, Brittany enjoys horseback riding, figure skating, and exploring the Pacific Northwest with her husband, Aaron, and their pup, Bronco. She is excited to be part of a community built on gratitude, encouragement, and support.

Stacy’s path into fitness didn’t start with a lifelong athletic identity—it started with a decision to try. In 2021, at age 28, she began working with GSC coach Lindsey Yeom, showing up to the gym feeling self-conscious and having to push herself through the door. With consistent coaching, encouragement, and the support of the GSC community, Stacy made real progress and found something even better than “getting in shape”: confidence. She realized how strong and capable she truly was—and that training could actually be fun. After experiencing that transformation firsthand, she became a coach to help others discover the same strength and self-belief.

Stacy’s coaching approach is built on patience and consistency. She knows every member’s goals are personal and take time, and she’s committed to creating a positive environment that helps people keep showing up—especially on the days it feels hardest. Stacy is USAW Level 1 certified in Olympic Weightlifting, with experience in competitive weightlifting and CrossFit. At GSC, she coaches Strength & Sweat and Weightlifting, and she loves inspiring members to step onto the platform, build confidence with the barbell, and celebrate each win along the way.

What inspires Stacy most is community—at GSC and among fellow local weightlifters—because progress is better (and victories are sweeter) when you do it together. Outside the gym, you’ll find her competing in USAW-sanctioned meets or hiking trails around the Pacific Northwest as a dedicated bird watcher, happily counting every bird she can spot.

Lauren has spent her life participating in and working in sports. She began playing basketball at a young age and became a multisport athlete in high school, where she discovered her love for track and field. She went on to compete in the 400-meter hurdles and 4x400-meter relay in college while earning her degree in exercise science with an emphasis in pedagogy. Her experience with a strong collegiate strength and conditioning program inspired her to pursue her Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) credential. Lauren later attended graduate school, where she served as a graduate assistant for the strength and conditioning coach and trained athletes across several collegiate programs.

Lauren’s career eventually led her into education, where she worked as a PE teacher, cross-country coach, track coach, strength coach, and athletic director. Throughout that time, her love for the gym remained, and she continued teaching group fitness classes and providing personal training on the side. Lauren began CrossFit in 2022 as a way to return to the gym, earned her CrossFit Level 1 credential in 2024, and has spent the past two years coaching at gyms in Beaverton. Alongside coaching CrossFit, she serves as the Youth Director for Bowerman Track Club and is a new mom.

Scott's fitness journey started with intense training as a member of the US fencing team, where he learned the importance of accessory drills. After a break from activity, he returned to skiing, realizing the need to rebuild his strength and cardio. Now, Scott helps others excel in their passions, whether it's skiing or strength training.

His philosophy focuses on slow, controlled movements to build a strong foundation and prevent injury. Scott specializes in hypertrophy, muscle building, skiing-specific training, and HIIT/CrossFit. He's inspired by evidence-based experts like Mike Israetel and Jeff Nippard, as well as his fiancée, Katie King, who continually pushes him to improve.
