Meet The Team
Choreographer
Alexander Hastings
I started my career at Jupiter high school in 2012 under the same staff as my cousin from her highschool and independent teams. After graduating in 2015 I started performing with the Boston Crusaders in 2015 as well as 16 and aged out in 2018. For Winterguard I performed with Premonition in 2016, Braddock Independent 2017 and Malachi 2023.
My teaching experience is centralized in south florida at a few different schools including Seminole Ridge, William T. Dwyer, Park Vista, Braddock High School. For the summer of 2019 I taught Jersey Surf Drum and Bugal Corps.
Outside of guard I enjoy hiking and camping in the mountains, traveling, immersing myself in varieties of different studies, and just doing color guard for fun.
We are so excited to bring Alexander on as a choreographer!
Choreographer
Jacob Adams
Jacob has had a love for color guard since 2012. The marching arts runs in his family. Ever since he was a kid, he's been involved in the arts somehow. Both as a spectator, and as a performer. Jacob's background is specifically weapon based. We're so excited to bring him on as a choreographer!
Jacob's color guard background started at Lone Peak high school in Highland, Utah in 2013. After graduating in 2017, he spent two seasons competing with the Battalion Drum and Bugle Corps. For the 2017 and 2018 seasons. And then, aging out with the Blue Knights Drum and Bugle Corps in 2021. He has also spun with Malachi Independent world from Denver Colorado. In 2018, and just recently in 2023. Jacob has spent a lot of time performing with his home team from Utah, Wasatch Independent from Salt Lake City. From 2019, all the way through 2023.
When Jacob is not performing, he's teaching at local high school programs in Utah. His first year of teaching was with Orem, Murray, and Timpanogos high school, for the 2018-2019 school year. More recently, Jacob taught at Lehi high school from 2019-2021 as a weapon technician. And currently, Jacob teaches at Westlake high school as a weapon technician. Jacob started in November of 2021, and still teaches there to this day. Jacob also spent the summer of 2022 as a choreographer/weapon technician for The Battalion Drum and Bugle Corps.
Aside from color guard, Jacob loves spending time relaxing at home, going on adventures through the mountains, swimming, trying new restaurants, traveling, and spending time with his friends and family. He plans on making color guard a big part of his life. In his words;
"I genuinely don't know where I'd be without my color guard family. I honestly think I have the best people in the world surrounding me because of this sport, and I'm truly grateful."
We're so excited to have him with us!
Logistics
Amberleigh Gregor
Amberleigh is logistical staff for Zenith. Her role is taking care of paperwork, setting rehearsal sites, and taking care of travel arrangements.
Amberleigh first fell in love with spinning when she picked up baton for her after school program in the 5th grade. She's spun everything from hula hoops to batons to staffs.
Fast forward to high school and she joined her school's guard team. She spun at Highlands Ranch High School for three seasons. She spent one season with Malachi A in 2021 and two seasons with Malachi World in 2022 and 2023.
Her favorite part of guard is learning new skills and pushing herself to new heights.
In her free time, you'll find Amberleigh camping, hiking, and kayaking in the mountains. She also enjoys crafting and crocheting.
From Amberleigh:
I'm thankful for this opportunity to grow our guard community here. I can't wait to see all the shows Colorado produces not only in our circuit but WGI as well!

Media
Hailey Guida
Hey guys! My name is Hailey and I run the media! I also help with design aspects to make everything look and sound pleasing to your eyes and ears!
I first fell in love with guard in middle school watching hours of videos online. I started officially spinning with Horizon high school in 2016. I then was tech help for two years after I graduated! I have also spun two seasons with Malachi.
My favorite part of being apart of the color guard world is how creative spinning makes me feel, and being able to push myself to places I’ve never been before.
In my free time I like to draw, crochet, do photography, and roller skate! I love to find new ways to express myself and be the most creative that I can possibly be.
I’m so thankful for this opportunity and getting to run our media! I’m so excited to see where our circuit is headed this coming season! And I’m so thankful I get to help ideas come to life!
