In my own words

— Heather

I am a recent graduate from Southern Methodist University with a Bachelor's Degree in Communications and a minor in Applied Physiology & Sport Management.

I am interested in social media, public relations, marketing, writing and blogging.

I grew up in South Florida, where I developed an interest in yoga, surfing, paddle boarding and all things outdoors. After graduating, I moved to Aspen, Colorado and worked in the ski industry for a year. I feel so lucky to have had the chance to be a part of the outdoor winter and summer culture.

I am currently certified to teach power yoga and indoor cycling. I hope to teach one or both fitness classes while taking part in a career in the outdoor industry. I currently live in Encinitas, California and hope to be a part of the outdoor lifestyle and make it be an element of my career.
