Eileen’s career started in laboratory research and developed into a very successful sales career. After completing her BS in Biology from Rutgers University, she continued researching The Neuroendocrine Control of Reproduction. One application of this research is to understand why elite female athletes hit puberty much later than their peers. After leaving Rutgers she worked for Degussa Corporation where they developed sold and implemented specialty software for the application of specific vitamins and amino acids. This experience has been integral to my deep understanding of sports nutrition, body systems, and recovery.
Eileen discovered Triathlon in 2004, placing 3rd female overall in the mountain bike division of the Chicago Triathlon. She was forever hooked. Other significant races and finishes include:
1st place: 2008 Chicago Cyclocross Cup Series
