"After playing collegiate basketball and earning a mathematics degree at Texas Woman’s University, I married my husband and had three boys.  While attending a gym to lose those post pregnancy pounds, I was introduced to TRX and was immediately hooked!  Despite never teaching a group fitness class, I attended the TRX Suspension Training Course in 2011 and the rest is history.  I have been teaching and training in different settings ever since.  I am both a certified personal trainer, and I hold a top level TRX certification as a TEAM Certified Coach.  As an ambassador of TRX, I live by the TRX motto of ‘Making Your Body Your Machine!’ ”
