In their words

I think my clients would describe me as energetic, passionate, a little spicy, chismosa, but also someone who genuinely cares. I'll push you, but I never want you to feel like you have to be the strongest or most experienced person in the room to belong there.

Most people are shocked when they find out fitness was not the original plan for me. Before this, I worked in healthcare and did immunology and virology research. I graduated from UH with a really high GPA and scored in the 98th percentile on my MCAT — just to completely change my life and not go to medical school (best decision ever, by the way).

But I think that's also a huge part of my why. I found something I genuinely love doing. I get to connect with people, bring my culture into the room, teach in English and Spanish, play the music I actually love, and make movement feel less intimidating.

My classes are challenging, intentional, loud, fun, and very me. Expect to work hard, move with intention, probably laugh at least once, and absolutely hear some reggaeton.
