Frankie discovered CrossFit® in 2011, during his junior year at Gonzaga University, at CrossFit Spokane. After moving to attend graduate school at Florida State University, he joined CrossFit Tallahassee, earned his CrossFit® Level 1 in 2013, and began coaching while completing his degree.
In 2015, he joined NorCal CrossFit, where he spent over a decade coaching and leading operations across multiple Bay Area locations. What began as a coaching role quickly evolved into a head coach and leadership position, working with hundreds of members and developing coaches along the way. In 2018, Frankie was selected to join the NCFIT Collective as a lead programmer.
Over the past seven-plus years with NCFIT, he helped build and refine multiple training programs that found success both within their gyms and in affiliates around the world. Helping everyday athletes become fitter, healthier, and more confident remains his guiding principle, and he is excited to bring the experience he's gained as a coach and programmer to HWPO.
