Something that may, or may not, surprise some is that I am a huge musical theatre enthusiast! In high school I participated in every show that would have me and even performed in two separate productions of Little Shop of Horrors.

I am a certified personal trainer and spin instructor! Movement and wellness have always been a passion of mine that I love to share with everyone in my life. Otherwise, you can find me reading, drinking coffee, or reading with a coffee.
