Meet Our Coaches
Coach Jam
Founder and Head Coach
Founded in 2023, CheerUP Cheer Company LLC was created by Coach Jam with a vision to build more than a cheer program—a community where young athletes develop confidence, character, leadership, and self-belief.
A lifelong cheerleader, Coach Jam began her journey at just five years old. After returning to the sport in high school, she served as JV and Varsity cheer captain from 9th through 11th grade, shaping the leadership-driven, team-first coaching philosophy she carries today.
A graduate of the University of Baltimore with a bachelor's degree in Business, Coach Jam combines her education, passion for athletics, and commitment to youth development to lead CheerUP.
Beyond the mat, Coach Jam is passionate about mental wellness and empowering athletes to recognize their worth and potential. Her mission is to create a supportive environment where every athlete can grow in confidence, resilience, and leadership—leaving CheerUP stronger, both as an athlete and as an individual.
