Tayla Shaheen

My name is Tayla and live outside the Boston area. I work full-time as a Customer Success Manager at Acquia, a local software company. When I graduated in 2011 with a Business Management degree, I had no idea what I wanted to do. After only two years at Acquia, I know more about Drupal and open-source CMS than I thought possible... and I love it! I work alongside a brilliant, determined and motivated team from around the world. 

When I am not in the office, I am taking or teaching fitness classes. Currently, I hold certifications in Spinning, Group X, Insanity, TurboKick and PiYo, and teach 14 classes a week. Physical activity is so important! Not only are there health benefits such as reducing the risk of heart disease, obesity and depression, exercise is FUN. There is no better feeling than walking into a classroom full of friends (many who may have started off as strangers) and getting fit and strong together. 

Through Fit Bodies, I have been able to teach and travel in Mexico (twice). Barbados and Jamaica!
