My fitness career has spanned more than a decade, but I started participating in an active lifestyle as a young teen. While other kids were attending summer camps, I chose to go on summer bike riding and camping expeditions, averaging 85 to 100 miles of rolling terrain a day.  I later went on to play Junior Varsity basketball, Varsity field hockey, and softball in my high school and college years.
 
I am currently the Group Exercise Coordinator at The Rush Fitness Complex on Wendover Avenue in Greensboro. I lead a wide variety classes there including: cardio, strength, cycle, kickboxing, and water aerobics. In addition, I am the owner and operator of Body Fit, a personal training business. I also run outdoor and indoor group Metabolic Effect training in Greensboro. Prior to these positions, I was a group exercise instructor at Women's Hospital of Greensboro, PurEnergy, Fitness Today, Camp Ramah Darom, B'nai Shalom Day School, and Gold's gym.
 
I am a "retired" TV anchor/reporter with a magna cum laude BS in Broadcast Journalism from Boston University. I currently write health related articles for Concept Communications at www.stayinginshape.com.
