What’s your secret weapon for building confidence in your students?
Creating a safe, judgement-free space where they can explore and grow. 

What’s a non-fitness skill that makes you a stronger teacher?
Active listening – it helps me connect deeply with students.

If your life had a theme song, what would it be?
If my life had a theme song, it would definitely be Burn It All Down by League of Legends and PVRIS

What is your ultimate “me time” indulgence?
It’s tough to pick just one, but my top “me time” favorites include solo movie nights and indulging in hair and body spa rituals with calming aromatherapy. Can’t go wrong with these!

What is the most adventurous thing you’ve ever done?
The most adventurous thing I’ve ever done was going on a voluntary trip with an NGO to a remote island. We helped educate villagers about water sanitation after a mega tsunami. On our return home, our boat got stranded in the middle of the sea! It was a moment of uncertainty, but we were lucky a ferry passed by and helped us out as we worked together to find a way back.
