ALL ABOUT ME

Hometown

Born in Helsinki, Finland.
Bragging Rights

I used to really hate running. But, now I have 3 half marathon races behind me, and run around 30 miles weekly.
What Most Don't Know

Besides being a group fitness instructor, I work as a digital operations editor for a food website. So when I’m not at the gym, I sit in front of a computer...and eat, a lot.
My Fitness Message

Be consistent, be persistent, and remember: You are stronger than you think.
Regeneration Destination

In New York, a long run by the east river and over the Williamsburg bridge always calms and centers me. If I can leave the city; my mom’s house in the forest by the ocean.
My Commitment

I am committed to keeping a balance between always pushing my boundaries while being kind to myself. Something I want to inspire others to do as well.
After My Class You'll Feel...

Stronger than when you first walked into the room...both body and mind.
