My passion for health and fitness is fueled by purpose, not appearance. As a Navy veteran, single mother of three daughters, and kindergarten teacher, strength allows me to show up fully in every role I carry. Fitness sharpens my discipline, protects my mental resilience, and keeps me grounded in faith. I train so I can lead, serve, endure, and model strength, consistency, and confidence for the next generation.
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?My favorite way to train is strength training paired with intentional movement. I love lifting heavy, challenging my limits, and building functional strength that carries into real life. Whether it’s the gym or finding creative ways to move on busy days, I train to stay strong, disciplined, and capable—not just fit.
What would you do with $20,000?I would use $20,000 to create stability and momentum by paying down debt, investing back into my classroom, and giving my three daughters more freedom and opportunity. Removing financial pressure allows me to lead, serve, and grow with clarity. I am also quietly building something new behind the scenes, and this would help bring that vision to life one intentional step at a time.
