McKenzie Schumacher

Bio

I grew up playing basketball and soccer, so competitive sports is what I know. I decided to go a different route in college and not play at the collegiate level, so finding something to fill that void was a goal of mine. It was in 2013 where I found CrossFit. I received my CrossFit Level 1 Certification in 2016 and have since been coaching classes and helping clients with personal training development. I also have a passion for nutrition. For the past several years, I’ve been helping clients understand the importance of fueling their body with foods that allow them to perform at their best. I love helping athletes, but I also love to help the every day member whose goals are different than competition. Fostering a healthy relationship with long term health is my number one goal with my community.

I graduated from UNO with a degree in accounting and received my MBA from Creighton University. I have been working in the corporate world since 2011 and have always felt something was missing. My passion for fitness and helping people achieve their best self drove me to want to do more than just coach, and that’s why I stand here today as the new owner of CrossFit Papio.
