Tell Your friends
FAVORITE GO-TO PUMP UP SONG?

Anything JayZ and Beautiful People by Chris Brown. I ran my first two Boston Marathons to this song on repeat (yes the whole time) and any time I hear it now it reminds me of crossing the finish line. It is definitely on my playlist for my 7th Boston Finish!

FIRST GROUP FITNESS CLASS?

My first group fitness was organized sports. I started at 4 years old in a gymnastics class and always loved the team aspect, competition, and how other individuals can motivate and drive each other.

FAVORITE MOVIE?

Coming to America

FIRST JOB?

I was a newspaper delivery girl. The fastest one in the neighborhood!!

HOMETOWN?

Wilbraham, Mass. Small farm town in western Massachusetts

FAVORITE JUNK FOOD?

Cheez-Its or Pringles.

FAVORITE RESTAURANT?

Right now I am on a sushi kick. Go-to spot – Empire in the Seaport.

GO-TO WEEKDAY MEAL?

Marinated chicken thighs with quinoa and mushrooms. It’s easy and healthy and I can make enough to last all week.

PERFECT SUNDAY AFTERNOON?

Wake up and go for a run, then brunch at 5 Horses with multiple mimosas, great people watching, getting outdoors, and usually a sporting event.

FAVORITE WORKOUT GEAR?

I love the store Legit Activewear in Wellesley. That is my go-to spot for the best workout/athleisure gear. I pretty much live in a sports bra and leggings.

WON’T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT?

My backpack. It contains my life. People often think I carry a large man in it due to the size, but going from class to class and meetings it holds what I need during my day.

GUILTY PLEASURE?

Everything cheesy! If that makes me guilty? Cheese pizza, cheese burgers, cheese Oreos, oh wait haha, those too, and a good Boston Cream doughnut.

FAVORITE PLACE TO SWEAT WHEN YOU AREN’T TEACHING?

Barry’s Bootcamp or a BoxFit class at The Club by George Foreman.

IN TEN YEARS I WILL BE _____?

Continuing to crush my own life goals and inspiring others to achieve theirs!

TIMES A DAY YOU CHECK SOCIAL MEDIA?

As part of building a personal brand you have to be checking it all the time and keeping up with others in the industry. You got to like to get liked!

HAVE TOO MUCH OF?

Maybe bathing suits….but you can never have too many bathing suits!! And cheese…

MORE ESSENTIAL: WATER OR COFFEE?

As much as I love a good iced coffee I have to go with water. I can never get enough!

FAVORITE VACATION SPOT?

Turks and Caicos.

GETS YOU OUT OF BED IN THE MORNING?

The power I have to motivate others. I teach/train a lot in the morning and therefore waking up early is something I do naturally and get excited about. Yes, I am definitely a morning person. I love breakfast too so if I get up early I can have a great breakfast to fuel a busy day.

IF YOU COULD BE ANYONE IN THE WORLD, WHO WOULD IT BE?

Ellen Degeneres.

CELEBRITY YOU’D MOST LIKE TO MEET?

Drake.

WHO INSPIRES YOU?

My mom. She is the mother of 5, a school teacher and mentor, and has always been a hard worker. She showed me how to work hard, love, take care of others, and always give back.
