"NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE. EVEN THE WORD ITSELF SAYS IT: I'M POSSIBLE"
– AUDREY HEPBURN
HEY THERE!
I’m a south Texas girl, living in New York City--half Puerto Rican and half French, fully working on my Spanish to hopefully have a conversation beyond ordering the best tacos I can find.
I love finding new ways to challenge my body (it’s no wonder why I find myself in musical theatre), when I’m not performing I am actively training in Lyra and Krav Maga – so I can give a killer roundhouse, but it’ll also be elegant as f***. I have my own fitness company, Dee Marie Fitness, where I coach people not for an aesthetic but to embrace what their bodies are actually capable of. Seeing people start to love their bodies is one of my biggest joys in life ❤️
My other biggest joy in life is to tell my story to better understand myself, so that others may be able to better understand themselves. We may be unique in our interpretations of our experiences, but our experiences are not unique to us they are universal and have the possibility to connect us all. I hope to connect as many hearts and souls through my art and coaching as possible.
