Development Team Roster

Kelly Crowley

Kelly joins TIBCO as a decorated Olympic veteran, having won two gold medals in swimming at the 2004 Paralympic Summer Games in Athens, Greece. After turning her focus to cycling, she is already on her way to the Bejing Paralympic Games. After her first year of national competition in 2007, Kelly became U.S. National Paralympic Road Race Champion. Crowley subsequently won gold at the World Paralympic Championships and is now the 2007 World Paralympic Road Time Trial Champion for 2007. Off the bike, Kelly has earned a bachelor's degree in political science from Santa Clara University, where she graduated valedictorian of her class, and a master's degree in public affairs from Indiana University.

Ashley Fouts

Ashley started her cycling career in graduate school, racing in collegiate fields for cross-country mountain biking, triathlon and road events, but she was quickly hooked on road riding and racing. Having recently completed her PhD in microbiology at Stanford, Ashley set her sights on road racing and won the 2007 Northern California Women's Category 3 Series. Off the bike, Ashley particularly enjoys the amazing views during her rides in the bay area because when she's not on the bike, she can be found looking down a microscope at tiny infectious organisms as a researcher for Genentech.

Charlotte Hart

Switching over from long-distance running to bicycling was a natural choice for Charlotte as she moved up from a cat 4 to cat 2 rider in less than two years. Her highlights include first place at the Quad Knopf NRC crit in Visalia, second at the Merco NRC crit in Merced, third at the CVC NRC race in Fresno and multiple podiums in local races. Desiring to join a team to help develop her potential, TIBCO signed her on with a look toward the future. Never shy with a challenge, Charlotte is an accomplished skier and rock climber, but when she isn’t earning her turns on an isolated peak, pumping a 5.11 crux on the east side of the Sierras, or training on her bike, she spends her time relaxing with her two Maine Coon cats, Duke and Maddy and, of course, her husband Eugene. A graduate of Stanislaus State University with a degree in History, she teaches American government, economics and World history at Atwater High School.

Jerika Hutchinson

Jerika discovered cycling after an ACL injury in skiing, and thank goodness she did. In just three years of racing, she has been California Junior State Time Trial Champion three years running and recently earned the Stars and Bars jersey as the 2007 U.S. Junior National Time Trial Champion. Jerika also podiumed in the Road Race and Criterium events this year at Nationals with two second place finishes. She rounded off this stellar season by winning the bronze medal at the 2007 Junior World Championship Time Trial. Off the bike, Jerika is an excellent student and helps care for her family's two Chocolate Lab puppies.

Alison Rosenthal

Ali's athletic career prior to cycling included a highly successful Division I varsity career in lacrosse at Brown University and a subsequent foray into marathon running, including four marathons in four years. She graduated from Brown University, started a career on Wall Street and eventually moved to California in 2003 to earn her MBA at Stanford. In her first season of cycling she placed on the podium at several NCNCA races after upgrading quickly from a category 4 to a category 2. Currently, she balances cycling with her career at Facebook, Inc., where she manages international and mobile business development.

Stacy Sims

Hailing from New Zealand where she earned her PhD in environmental exercise physiology, Stacy comes to Team TIBCO from a background in triahtlon. Her experience includes racing at the World Championship level in Ironman triathlon and road cycling, a background that lends strength to her time trialling and climbing abilities. Between races, she works as a postdoctoral research scientist at Stanford's Prevention Research Center, where her primary research focus is now environmental and exercise stress in women and chronic disease populations.
