Hi my name is Kenzie Rice, I was born and raised in Humboldt County where the redwoods meet the sea. After graduating from Dallas Baptist University in 2018 as a college athlete with my BS in Biology, I made my way to the beautiful Lake Tahoe area to further my health journey, expand my knowledge in health & fitness, and surround myself with the breathtaking outdoors.
