Bio:

Teaching group fitness is my second career and the most rewarding! I worked at Hallmark for 16 years and upon retiring decided to pursue teaching fitness. I have been teaching for two years and I love it! The best part is meeting such great people, and having a sense of community with people who are trying to stay healthy!

I am married to a great guy, and we have two grown children; one lives in Denver, and one in Baltimore. I try to see them as much as they want me to visit. When I am not teaching at The J, you may find me enjoying time with my family. I also like, boating with my husband, mom, and brother at Lake of the Ozarks, playing pickleball, hiking, reading books, and continued learning about anything.
