If you could instantly master any skill, what would it be?
Gardening. I wish I could grow plants and flowers and not kill them. It’s an essential and rewarding skill, and I admire it so much.
What’s the one thing you always tell your class before starting?
This is YOUR workout so ROCKOUT, UNLEASH and challenge yourself. I’m just here to guide you. HAVE FUN MAKING NOISE and TAKING UP SPACE!
What’s your go-to music genre?
I LOVE every genre, but New Wave/Dark Wave 80s is my go-to. Besides the love for synthesizers, it brings up many memories of growing up and discovering myself.
What’s your post-training ritual or treat?
Being in Texas, I make sure there is a Buc-ee’s in route, heading home to grab a fresh, warm Barbecue sliced turkey sandwich, homemade chips, and warm roasted candied almonds.
