Alex Domine

Coach & Marketing Manager

Alex grew up in the South Sound, spending childhood afternoons on the local swim team as a “Guppy” before trading in goggles for a helmet as a teenager. Mountain biking and long-distance road cycling kept him moving, pushing his limits for endurance and mental grit before taking to the tennis court in high school. While attending Pacific Lutheran University studying journalism and music, Alex discovered a love for travel, where every trip became an opportunity to explore new landscapes and keep moving.
 
CrossFit entered Alex’s life in 2016, redefining his relationship with fitness. After joining University Place CrossFit in 2019, it didn’t take long to fall in love with the fun and supportive environment. Five years later, he earned his trainer credentials to fill his cup for learning and problem solving. Tackling mental blocks like getting comfortable upside down in a handstand, conquering a fear of heights at the top of a muscle up or finding the rhythm for a good kip keeps him walking through the doors everyday. Alex is excited to help athletes of all levels challenge themselves, have fun and celebrate their wins in a positive and approachable space.
 
Outside the gym, Alex works at a branding agency and lives in Tacoma, enjoying its proximity to the water. Summers are often spent kayaking along Puget Sound, while weekends may involve soaking up the local arts scene, exploring coffee shops to find the perfect cold brew or buying his next plane ticket.

Zeke Dodson

COACH

I grew up doing anything I could outdoors: hiking, hunting, fishing, backpacking, rock climbing. In school, I played lacrosse and ran cross-country. But I dove deeper into sports and athletics a little bit later in life. I started long distance running after high school and trained for multiple half marathons and countless 5k’s and 10k’s. I then started doing triathlons and completed both sprint and Olympic distance triathlons. I was then introduced to CrossFit by my two older siblings, and I fell in love with it! CrossFit has helped me build my strength while still keeping my cardio in a good place, and has helped me prevent injuries. I’ve been doing CrossFit since 2021 and have loved all of it.
 
I feel honored to be able to share what I love with others. CrossFit has changed the way that I view health and fitness and I hope to help others learn to love it the way I do.

Courtney McGuire

COACH

I have always loved moving my body, and have a hard time sitting still. I have many hobbies, and it’s hard to fit them all in. I love to travel, I always have somewhere to go on my list, I love to be outside, and I love to be on the water! I have done long distance cycling, paddle boarding, circuit training, running, hiking, you name it! But, I truly think I have found the sport that captures all the things I love under one umbrella. I have been doing HIIT for 6 years before I started going to CF regularly. I had some background in weight training, and endurance but CrossFit really challenges all of these for me. The sky is the limit in this sport, and there are always scales/modifications that fit everyone’s needs. I truly love being a part of this community, and have watched my abilities grow by leaps and bounds with the coaching at UPCF. I was lucky enough to be able to get my CFL 1 certificate in a special course with other medical professionals in April 2023, and was able to start coaching at UPCF. I love the community, we have a tight bond and it’s so special to this community. I am definitely a morning person so, I usually am at 6 am and typically coach 5 and 6 am. My other job is RN and I have worked in several different specialties in my career. So you can catch me in the AM working out or coaching, periodically participating in CrossFit comps, or volunteering!

Growing up, I was always involved in sports and have always lead an active and healthy lifestyle. I have been doing CrossFit for over 7 years now.

But with CrossFit, I found a community like no other; it is truly special and is what keeps me coming back day after day. I started coaching summer 2023, and it has given me a whole new outlook on CrossFit. I love being able to teach others and it is inspiring to watch athletes grow and push themselves. Outside of the gym, you can find me spending time with friends, reading a good book, or watching the real housewives. I currently live in Gig Harbor with my husband, Trevor, and work additionally as a hairstylist here in University Place!

ERIK BROWN

​CrossFit Coach

Erik is a California kid, born and raised in the Central Valley. Erik grew up as an avid multi-sport athlete; anywhere from baseball, soccer, swim and water polo. His passion for team-based sports ultimately led him down a path to play water polo for Fresno Pacific University, where he met his wife Hannah. The Browns moved to Tacoma in 2018 and Erik got hired as a firefighter shortly after. He lives right down the street from the gym with his wife Hannah, his son Dawson and their two dogs. Erik had struggled to find a community that could push him physically and mentally like his sports teams were able to. Luckily, he discovered UPCF in 2020 and has been with us ever since. He took his passion for learning and coaching fitness to the next level when he started coaching at UPCF in late 2022.
 
 
Outside of the gym, Erik is a Firefighter with South County Fire in Snohomish County, WA. His passion for fitness and community extends to his own fire department where he encourages those around him to be fit for the job. Erik has a passion for coaching and creating a comfortable learning environment while he instructs at the Fire Academy.
 
 
He is an avid outdoorsman where you can find him hunting, fishing or hiking. The Browns often find themselves spending time with their son and their two dogs, Zacki and Arthur and seeking out the best bites and drinks in Tacoma.

JESS QUERASMA

Yoga Instructor

After a ten year career working with animals, Jessica found an incredible sense of authenticity in her yoga practice when she moved from Florida to NYC in 2015.  As a long time practitioner of martial arts, she has followed the wisdom from the principles of Budo and understands that the true mastery to any discipline comes from cultivating one’s inner strength. What started as a means of physical healing, her yoga practice quickly revealed an intricate connection between the moral codes of Budo and the eight-limbed path of Yoga. 

Focusing on centered and mindful movement, Jessica emphasizes fluid transitions between asana and exploring ways of releasing the emotional and physical tension in both the mind and body. Jessica is particularly sensitive to shoulder and hip injuries as she has suffered from both hip dysplasia and shoulder muscle tears.

Jessica’s background in Science has taught her that progress happens when there is space for growth, so she encourages you to release any expectation or self-judgment. If we approach Yoga with curiosity and playfulness then the spark of our own potential can thrive. If we do the work with intention in moments of stillness, then deep in the chaos we have clarity. 

Jessica is Yoga Alliance certified RYT-200 hrs through Sonic Yoga in NYC, has a third degree black belt in Shotokan Karate, a white belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and rides a motorcycle.

CHRIS LUNDQUIST

CrossFit Coach

Chris has lived in the Pacific Northwest all his life and currently lives in University Place with his wife, Melody. Chris has always enjoyed competitive sports and grew up playing soccer, basketball, and baseball. When his father built the first indoor tennis club in the area, his focus turned to tennis and Chris went on to become a top-ranked junior, collegiate, and adult player. After he finished competing, Chris used his experience and began coaching for the next 15 years which included 7 years as the head tennis coach for Fife High School.

As an adult, it was still important for Chris to maintain an active lifestyle. He was introduced to CrossFit when he attended the 2015 West Regional event at the Tacoma Dome. He knew right then that CrossFit was something that he wanted to pursue. Chris eventually made his way to University Place CrossFit and knew that he was at the right place. The UPCF community is like no other community and offered everything that Chris was looking for.

Chris loves coaching and he is excited to be a part of University Place CrossFit and helping people grow and reach their full potential. Chris is a Level 1 CrossFit Trainer and has his CrossFit Masters Trainer Certificate.

MEGAN ERNST

​CrossFit Coach

Megan is a University Place native, graduating from Curtis High School. She grew up competitively swimming and playing water polo. After college, she coached club water polo for Puget Sound Polo and high school water polo at Silas (formerly Wilson) for several years. In November 2018, she walked into University Place CrossFit on a free friends and family day… and never looked back! After resigning from water polo coaching, she decided to get her L1 and then began coaching at UPCF. She loves that CrossFit is infinitely scalable for any athlete. It is so fun seeing a community complete the same workout, but in their own way based their ability and strength. Megan currently lives in University Place with her three cats – Leonardo DiCatpurrrio, Kat Winslet and Loaf Goodson. She works as a dental hygienist for a root canal specialist (who she got to join UPCF also!) In the gym, she dislikes running and accumulating calories on an erg, but loves any gymnastic movement like handstand push ups or pull ups. When she’s not at the gym, she loves brunching with friends (and the nap that follows), cheering on the Seahawks, exploring the PNW, traveling to new places and still stays true to her roots by playing water polo with her masters team.

PAULINE MAY

Director of Motivation & Coach

Pauline was the founding coach of RevUp and was with UPCF since day one. She specialized in early childhood development and was brilliant with children as well as programming to fit the specific needs for ages 3-10.  Pauline received her ​CrossFit OL-Level 1 Certificate in January of 2022 and started coaching adult CrossFit classes as well. 

​If the UPCF community is a fire, Pauline was the spark that set it ablaze. It is Pauline’s example of strength in the face of adversity that led our founding team to set the dream that is UPCF into motion. In 2013, Pauline was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. An avid outdoors women, runner and mother of three, Pauline refused to allow her diagnosis to control her life. For over a year, she endured intensive treatments including chemotherapy, radiation and a bilateral mastectomy. Throughout her treatment, Pauline remained active; often against the orders of her doctors. Once in remission, Pauline dedicated herself to not only regaining but improving upon her previous level of fitness. CrossFit offered a proven and potent template from which to build on that goal. With quality CrossFit programming and an unrivaled work ethic, this cancer survivor found herself closing in on 40 years of age, in the best shape of her life. With poise and pure positivity, Pauline became a shining example of hope for everyone lucky enough to be a part of her journey.

In 2017, after several years in remission, Pauline once again sat on the receiving end of devastating news. Her breast cancer had returned; this time aggressively attacking her bones. Though a recurrence of this nature brings with it a difficult fight, Pauline remained true to her faithful and hopeful message. It was precisely this news that also set in motion the sequence of decisions and events that would ultimately lead to the founding of UPCF. For over a decade, Pauline’s family had shared a vision of forming a business based on improving lives. Facing the reality of another bout with cancer, the family decided to take immediate action in the form of what we now refer to as our “Intentional Life.” With Pauline’s fighting spirit as a guide, UPCF was born.

Pauline’s fight ended on September 3, 2022 but was not lost. She defied odds over and over and inspired thousands along the way to keep living with intention, hope and love. We will always view her battle as victorious because of the lasting impact she has left on this earth.
