Since April 2017.

What did you do prior to getting into fitness?

Once I graduated from college, I pretty much went straight into fitness.

What is your fitness background?

I was a competitive swimmer for 15 years all throughout college. Once I got into the fitness field, I completely immersed myself in it. In addition to teaching (and taking) Lagree classes, I teach bootcamps, HIIT classes, and personal train.

How did you find Lagree?

Truthfully, Indeed.com. I saw a listing posted looking for an instructor. It described Lagree as a unique hybrid method, and I thought “SURE! Sounds like fun! Let’s do it!” Easily one of the best decisions I’ve made in life.

Favorite Mega Move?

Teaching – Bungee. Taking – Runner’s Lunge.

Mega move that challenges you the most?

Anything that involves the bungee.

What is your guilty pleasure?

Happy Hour.
