Hey everyone, this is my first post on my new blog. I have a blog started on a different website, but I wanted to connect this one directly to my website, where you can find everything out about my hooping journey from 2012 to now. I will be transferring over the posts from there to here soon. I also will begin writing new content whenever I can!

So here's what's been up with me:
My husband and I got a divorce in mid 2018. I dyed my hair purple, like I always wanted to! I then found a new and wonderful love that suits my needs, and with him I now live in Falconer, New York. I am loving every minute of it. I already found a new practice and teaching space with good sized rooms and high ceilings, at Xplosion Allstars. I just graduated with my MASTER's degree in Nonprofit Management from Regis University.
I am employed here in NY at Applebees in Lakewood as a host, where I can enjoy constant interaction with people that feed my energy, and that makes me happy. I am also employed by two work from home jobs, one of which is really awesome, called www.glowyshit.com. They are dedicated to all things that glow, including hoops and flow toys! Check that one out and stay tuned for new things there.
Oh, I also got sponsored by moodhoops over the past year! That was my biggest and most difficult goal in my hooping journey. I never thought I would get it but here I am!! I like to think it was part luck, and part hard work. I plan to work harder to feel like I really earned it!
My next big goal is to teach at the full circle hoop camp/retreat being held by Rachael Lust. I also would love to perform or teach at some bigger festivals, such as Firefly. I will soon be one of the sponsored artists hosting a moodytricks challenge. You can find that on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/moody_tricks/
Stay updated with this site and check back. I will post links to each new article on my facebook pages.
