Taryn is a fierce competitor with a gentle and fun loving soul that drew me in immediately when we met in Louisiana in the summer of 2021.  She was a multiple sport athlete growing up in South Dakota, had an indoor collegiate career at Creighton University and only made the transition to the beach in 2020.  Her work ethic and positivity are elements to her personality that I love and even with an AVP Championship under her belt, alongside partner Kristen Nuss, in her first season as a pro in 2021, she has only begun to scratch the surface of her potential on the beach.
