Please briefly share your fitness journey with us.

My fitness journey started with Colorguard and swim competitions! When I got to college I had to lose weight for my ROTC scholarship. From there, my passion for fitness started to evolve and I love learning and trying new things that will keep me healthy.

We believe fitness + friendship = FUN! What is your favorite group fitness workout?

Definitely @needmorebrit‘s TrampoLeanFit class at the Loft here in Atlanta! 💚

While working out is essential, so is eating the right foods. What is your go-to pre-workout meal? How do you refuel after a workout?

I love to have a granola bar before the gym and after, a nice protein smoothie or shake.

What is one item that is always in your gym bag?

One thing that has to be in my bag at all times is my GoodBodyGal resistance band!
