About me: I’m finishing my Ph.D. at UVA, writing a dissertation on music-movement intersections in fitness, sport, and dance communities! I played soccer growing up, but now I run and lift weights (I’m a total meathead, I admit!). I got my first job in fitness back in 2013, never expecting it to me my lifelong job, but here we are! Movement is how I make meaning in my life, and it’s my biggest passion inspiring others to love to move too! The most random thing about me is my obsession with crosswords.
Guilty Pleasure: Boy Bands
