From building a gym that became a community powerhouse to raising two small humans who give me a run for my money every day, I’ve learned how to show up, even when it’s messy.
I believe in taking up space, making hard calls, and showing up fully for what matters to you—even when it’s uncomfortable. That’s what I bring to the table: real talk, fresh perspective, and the kind of energy that makes you want to go all in.
I don’t do things halfway.
