What year did you begin working at Run With Us? 
I started working at Run With Us in 2007.

‍When & where did you go to high school? College? What did you study? 
I graduated in 2004 from Lincoln High school. After that I went to Glendale Community College where I competed in track and field and cross country. I had a great time there, I loved all my teachers, coaches, classes and specially my track and cross country teammates.

‍Did you run in high school and/or college?
‍College was probably one of the best experiences in running, I had so much fun. I did better in track and field. I wasn’t that good in cross country or the long distance events. In track I focus mainly in the middle distance events 800m and 1500m.

‍When & how & why did you get in to the sport of running? Do you have a favorite moment that stands out in your running career? Any personal records we should know about?
‍Personal best 2:01 (800m) and 4:06 (1500m).

‍In competition, what is or was your favorite distance?  Road, Track, Trails, Treadmill, Couch? What do you enjoy most about the sport or your own running? 
‍Running has always been an outlet for me to relieve stress and more than anything to live a long an healthy  life. I still averaged about 40 miles a week. Mostly trail running, I tried to stay away from too much pavement.

‍Since working at Run With Us, what has been your favorite aspect of the job? What has been your favorite running shoe of all-time? What is your favorite shoe currently? Of all time?
‍My favorite running shoes are the Mizuno Wave Inspire and the Brooks Adrenaline which I’m currently using. 

‍Do you have a favorite meal of all-time?  Outside of Run With Us & Running, do you have any other interests?
‍And if I’m not running I’m spending time with family and my little girl Maya which is almost 5 year old. She has so much energy. She’s the reason why I wake up every morning ready to tackle life and work hard. She keeps me grounded.
