What is the most gratifying aspect of your job?
I love helping people find the healthiest and happiest version of themselves. Building strength, getting fit and healthy and dealing with stress in a mindful way paves a beautiful path to happiness and longevity. I love hearing how finding Balance Studio has helped our students find that path that changes their lives.

How has working in wellness influenced you as a person?
I am a type A person and believe most entrepreneurs are, but I drink my own Kool-aid and try to move through my life with mindfulness and intention. I try to conduct myself in both my personal and business life in a manner that reflects the yogic philosophies. The methods that we teach at the studio, Yoga and Pilates in particular, are all about mindfulness, caring and empathy for yourself and others. I try to take that message off my mat every day and share it with my family, friends and community.

What words of wisdom do you have for women considering launching their own business?
Do your homework first. Find a niche to be filled and make sure you have the resources or financing to carry you through. Making sure your vision is something that aligns with your strengths and passions is critical.

What is the secret to finding balance in life?
One of the most important things to finding balance is doing something you love as often as you can. Whether it’s working out, cooking, sharing time with family and friends or travel, finding something that you are passionate about and sharing it with others is my key to balance.
