From long days on the water as a deckhand to early-morning lifts and cold plunges before class, I’ve always been drawn to environments that challenge both the body and the mind. Recover Co. started as a simple idea during my entrepreneurship coursework at the University of Tennessee: create a space where athletic recovery, wellness, and community actually work together. What began as a class project quickly grew into something more meaningful as I realized how many student-athletes, weekend lifters, and everyday people needed accessible tools to feel better, move better, and perform better. That insight sparked the mission behind Recover Co.—to bring high-quality recovery services like cold plunge, sauna, red light therapy, and guided stretching into an approachable, modern brand built for real people.

As a Management & Entrepreneurship major with a collateral in Marketing, I’ve always been passionate about building things—businesses, experiences, and relationships. Recover Co. is an extension of that drive. It reflects my own journey with wellness, my curiosity for product development, and my belief that recovery is just as important as training. I wanted to create something that blends lifestyle and performance, something that encourages people to slow down, recharge, and invest in themselves. Whether it becomes a full launch or stays an MVP born in BizLaunch University, Recover Co. represents the type of business I hope to create throughout my career: meaningful, community-driven, and focused on helping people live healthier lives.
