My Story

I've been an athlete all my life playing competitive basketball and tennis since I was little. In high school I tore my ACL playing basketball and that was a defining moment in my life as I was planning to play college ball. I ended up going to college and was scouted for modeling and pursued that through college and after and entered the tech space full time. In 2017 I discovered Barre after going to a hot yoga studio in LA and fell in love with it and ended up getting certified and teaching. At the same time I was going to another favorite studio: MDR in LA and discovered my love for Lagree. A few years ago I re-tore my ACL/Meniscus and had to start over in my fitness journey to re-strengthen my knee after surgery. I was very committed to giving 110% during Physical Therapy to get myself back to health and truly back to what I love Lagree and barre. Within 3 months I was able to deadlift and walk more than 5 miles. I'm a little over a year past my surgery and feeling stronger than ever and a lot of it has to do with my love for all things fitness. This inspired me to get certified in Lagree as it made me stronger and I want to share this with others.
