Social worker, indoor cycling instructor and personal trainer
Varsity bona fides: I was captain of the field hockey and track and field teams my senior year in college.
Her double life: By day, I work to recruit foster parents. By night, I am an indoor cycling instructor for the Handle Bar, and I work privately as a personal trainer.
On playing Mrs. Claus: I organized a clothing and toy drive for the Department of Children and Families, and I organize the sponsoring of families in need every holiday season, recruiting local business to donate gifts.
Endorphin source: I enjoy running and have finished four Boston Marathons, with a P.R. of 3:07 this past year. I’m running my fifth in April, and I hope to break my record.
Must love dogs: I’m obsessed with my two dogs—Oscar, a multipoo, and Hunter, a tripod toy poodle.
Celebrity crush: I have two: Jimmy Fallon, because he’s absolutely hysterical and cute, and Tom Brady, because he’s perfect.
Refreshing trait: I am super low-maintenance.
Dating disaster: I was set up on a blind date, and our waitress ended up being his ex-girlfriend. She decided to ask me in front of him if I knew he was a cheater.
Guilty pleasures: Bravo (reality TV), TMZ and chocolate chip cookies.
