What is your greatest fitness achievement?
Playing field hockey at the D1 level, starting all 4 years, and earning all-conference accolades. I was also honored to play in Germany with a youth national team.
What is your favorite exercise?
Anything that targets glutes, so hip thrusts, squats, and deadlifts are a favorite. I also really love pull ups.
Why Do you choose to train at Rise?
It reminds me of the team environment I loved in D1 field hockey. Being part of a team taught me how powerful support, encouragement, and shared goals can be. RISE has that same energy; friendly, welcoming, and pushing each other to improve. I love being in an environment where people push one another and where fitness feels like being part of a team again.
What is your favorite glutenous meal?
Even though they can be so messy, I do love some chicken wings.
Hobbies outside of the gym?
Spending time with my family, snorkeling, hiking, playing sports, paddle boarding, and anything outside.
Personal Fitness Goals:
Stay strong, healthy, and active for life so I can always keep up with my two boys. I enjoy attempting to outrun them and kick their butts on the field and in the gym!
