Born and raised in Northport, NY, Lianne attended Northport High School prior to heading for the southern charm of Tar Heel country and the Universiy of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. While with the Heels, Lianne earned a degree in Journalism and Mass Communications while minoring in Coaching Education. On the track, Lianne was a two-time All-American and two-time ACC Champion. All this, and she was a walk-on when she first got to UNC. Lianne has since traded coasts, and now trains with Team New Balance Boston.

Though a fierce competitor on race day, Lianne has a down to earth and easy-going personality. She says, "I'm able to bounce back quickly after injuries or bad races and always have my sights set on the future." Lianne spends most of her spare time in the many coffee shops of Sacramento, reading and drinking coffee; or just hanging out in the big old house she lives in with 9 roommates, 3 cats, and a dog.
