What’s one word or phrase that perfectly sums up your energy
MAGNETIC!

What’s your secret weapon for building confidence in your students?
Connection. I strive to make any small point of connection with each student so that they feel seen and accepted. Ready to show up as their most authentic self! 

What’s your go-to music genre?
I love all genres! When the beat leads I’m all in! For a POUND class I lean toward POP, SOULFUL ROCK and HIP HOP vibes! 

What is your first POUND memory?
Walking in the park and hearing the Ripstix before seeing them. Finding myself completely enthralled. I’ve been making noise ever since that first time!
