Originally from Baltimore, Maryland, I graduated as the valedictorian from Towson University with degrees in both Dance Performance and Sociology/Anthropology.  In the summers I studied on scholarship at the Paul Taylor School as my first dream was to be a ‘starving modern dancer in NYC’. Life had different plans as upon graduation, I made my professional debut with the world famous Radio City Rockettes, performing in multiple productions including the 31-city Arena Tour as well as on the Great Stage at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. I served as the Assistant Dance Captain and was selected for prestigious events including the Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, The Today Show, NY Knicks basketball games, and the Wendy Williams Show to name a few. My LA performing credits include Seth MacFarlane’s Ted 2, MAC Cosmetics, Toyota, Harley Davidson, and Isagenix.  Other dance credits include America’s Got Talent featuring Pitbull, Theatre Aspen, Belluscious Entertainment and contemporary modern company dre.dance. 

Being an athletic dancer allowed me to transition seamlessly into the world of fitness! I am a former Nike Master Trainer, a nationally qualified NPC Bikini Competitor, and have appeared in fitness videos for Livestrong, Denise Austin, Sweat Factor, and Beachbody (21 Day Fix, 21 Day Fix Extreme, 21DF Real Time). I hold a zillion certifications including NASM (personal training), Precision Nutrition, NESTA (Fitness Nutrition Coaching), Power Pilates (mat), TRX Suspension Training (Level 1 and Level 2 FORCE), Mad Dogg Athletics SPINNING, Schwinn Cycling, and Turbokick. You can find me at Equinox in Southern California teaching anything from strength training to treadmill classes to barre to HIIT to kickboxing. Unless it's the holiday season, where you can find me perfecting my twist and red lips, kicking next to my favorite long legged ladies!
