With over 30 years of experience in the cheerleading world, Randi’s passion for the sport runs deep. Her journey began at the age of five as a young athlete, cheering for recreational teams, all-star programs, and her high school team. After high school, she seamlessly transitioned into coaching starting at a local all-star program and quickly falling in love with helping young athletes grow in both skill and confidence.

Randi, and her husband Sean, decided to bring the same spark and spirit to Idaho. Combining her vast experience, love for working with children, and passion for the sport, Randi is excited to introduce Idaho to the dynamic, flashy Fierce vibe that has shaped her career and life.
