I received a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Baylor University. I am certified as a Group Fitness Instructor through the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America and am Piyo® certified and Zumba® licensed. In addition to those certifications, I am certified by the American Heart Association in CPR and First Aid. I have been employed at the Waco Family YMCA as a Group Fitness Instructor since 1999 teaching many different fitness formats such as Kid's Fitness, Body Shaping, Zumba®, Step, Cardio Circuit, Stretching, Kickboxing and Interval Training. I was also selected as the YMCA Employee of the Year in 2010. In addition to my YMCA classes, I also teach fitness classes at Fellowship Bible Church. My husband, Darren, and I have been married 29 years and have three children.
