• In 2001 I started my fitness profession.  I started teaching while I was at college at Washington State University.  I taught a variety of dance classes, including jazz, contemporary and hiphop.  I soon recieved my certification in yoga (yogafit) and an in house pilates certification.  When I graduated from college I started working at World Gym.  There I taught a variety of classes, I received a certification in both Body Step and Body Flow while I was there.  At that time I also got my personal training certification through NASM.  I worked at three locations that were personal training studios.  To keep up my teaching, I started teaching dance at a local dance studio.  I taught jazz, contemporary and hiphop.

In 2010 I started teaching fitness classes at Fit for me.  Again I teach a variety of classes including, kickboxing, hi/lo, barre, yoga, cardio strip, bootcamp, and HIIT.  Four years later a position at Columbia Basin Community College presented itself, and now I am employed by CBC.  There I teach Dance Aerobics, Strength Training and Kickboxing.  I have increased my class load to include health, wellness and fitness academic classes.
