I joined spenga in June 2024. I fell in love with Spenga after my first session. I became a Spenga instructor in October 2024.

My favorite part of working at SPENGA?

My favorite part about working at SPENGA is the people. Everyone is so kind and so welcoming, it feels like I have a second family. I love the positivity and energy i receive for staff and members!

Favorite format?

My favorite format is shadow boxing. It is a great way to meet new people and engage with other members, as you have to be in sync with your partner across from you. Shadow boxing motivates you to push through the work out and get it done!

What made you get involved in fitness or instructing?

Growing up in sports my whole life has really had a big influence on why I am so passionate about fitness. I am a former BIG 10 collegiate athlete and believe that fitness is truly important.

Where can I be found?

I can be found in the gym haha I love working out, I mainly do a lot of heavy lifting in the gym. I spend most of my time with my family at home with my 2 beautiful baby girls(Mahoagny & Malani) and amazing fiancé.

After a workout snack?

After a workout, I love drinking gatorade. I usually like to eat something quick and on the go after I workout. Anything with rice or fries sounds appetizing after a workout.

My guilty pleasures?

I love eating steak and drinking Shirley temples. If I had to pick one meal to eat for the rest of my life, it would be steak and loaded mashed with a Shirley temple. My fiancé and I also love to play board games, like Monopoly, Yahtzee, Uno and Spades. I love a good board/card game.

Songs that get me hyped?

I love music with nice beats to ride to. I like to play hip hop and pop songs. You may even catch me jamming out to my music because it’s so good lol.
