About Us

After a decades-long career as a journalist – most recently as an investigative producer for NBC News in Los Angeles – I made a bold move in 2025: I left my career and relocated to Chicago’s North Shore. I had spent years asking tough questions of others. Suddenly, I had to ask myself the hardest one: what’s next?

The answer had been there all along.

I discovered Pilates years ago, after a herniated disc caused debilitating lower back pain. What began as a way to recover from injury became something much more. Pilates strengthened my core and gradually brought me back to moving freely, without pain. Over time, I built a stronger, more resilient body – and I felt energized in every part of my life.

Now, in midlife, staying active matters more than ever. Yet our bodies don’t always respond the way they used to – aches linger, and injuries take longer to heal. This is why I believe Pilates is essential. It builds deep core strength that supports how you live and move – whether walking, traveling, playing sports, or simply going about your day.

All of this led me to teaching Pilates. I’m passionate about helping women in midlife feel strong in their bodies through a practice that is approachable, supportive, and even fun.

I work exclusively one-on-one, so every session is tailored to the client– their body, their goals, their life.
