Board of Directors


PRESIDENT:

Cameron Snyder
president@oaklandtriclub.com

(she/her) As people from Connecticut do, Cameron started her athletic journey in sailing taking it to the collegiate level in upstate New York. Immediately needing some sunshine after college, she moved out West and has found a love for everything the Bay Area has to offer outside including triathlon. She has completed a few 70.3s, her first Ironman in Barcelona, and a solo bike tour from SF to San Diego.


VICE PRESIDENT:

Leanne Hemminger
vicepresident@oaklandtriclub.com

(she/her) A former swimmer, Leanne got started in triathlon in 2021 after she bought her first adult bike and was quickly hooked. She prefers longer distance races (slow and steady!) and has completed a handful of 70.3s as well as Ironman California. She looks forward to long-run Sundays as an excuse to catch up on her favorite podcasts. Outside of multisport, she’s also an avid bowler and trivia goer (specializing in the music round).


SECRETARY:

Kristen

secretary@oaklandtriclub.com

(she/her) New to triathlon and completing her first in 2023, Kristen has led an active life in other aspects including many running races, weight lifting, getting her personal trainer certificate and previously coaching group fitness classes. She is looking forward to getting deeper into the multisport community.


TREASURER:

Varun Kaushik 
treasurer@oaklandtriclub.com

(he/him) A former overworked manufacturing engineering career led to finding cycling as a way to destress in 2019. It quickly turned from hobby to life passion completing multiple century rides. Now I look forward to multi sport endeavors and also approaching my fitness journey more holistically…expect to earn my first Yoga teacher training certification in 2024!


ATHLETICS DIRECTOR:

Milica Grahovac
athletics@oaklandtriclub.com

(she/her) Drawn to triathlon as a fun and versatile way to stay fit, Milica joined the OTC in 2022, long after competing for the first time at the Oakland Triathlon Festival in 2017. She enjoys the fruitful club environment and is grateful to be exposed to many excellent athletes of different backgrounds. When not tackling a bike, run, or swim training session, she might be practicing violin, or even playing tennis with Varun.

SPONSORSHIP DIRECTOR:

COMMUNITY OUTREACH:

Nate Hall
outreach@oaklandtriclub.com

Nate did his first triathlon in 2021 with three friends and has been hooked since! He grew up swimming and running, so it was an easy T1 to get into triathlons. He’s done a variety of distances and locations, and is looking forward to improving his time at IM Sacramento this year! When not training, you can find him and his wife skiing or hiking, or taking their Berner, Murphy, on walks.


WEB DIRECTOR:

Jason Agbayani 
web@oaklandtriclub.com

(he/him) Jason got into triathlons in 2018, having previously known nothing about the sport. He is self described as a little bit "extra" so this perfect for him. He went from barely able to completing a sprint to completing a couple of 70.3's, and IMAZ. He has lived in Northern California his entire life except for a year spent teaching in South Korea. While not training, he enjoys spreading the gospel of Peloton.
