Getting to Know Amanda
What is your position at The J?
I teach indoor cycling
How long have you been working here?
I've been working here about 9 months
What do you do outside of work?
I currently teach 6 other classes a week and I love lifting weights. I have two kids ages 9 and 12. They keep me pretty busy. I'm also a crazy New Orleans Saints fan so during football season Sunday's are reserved for football. Being a super fan is hard work!
What is your favorite food?
I'm crazy about Mexican food and barbecue! My husband has an award winning Barbecue team, so we get to eat it a lot when competition season rolls around.
What is your guilty pleasure?
My guilty pleasure is diet Pepsi (only fountain) and red wine. I also probably eat more cheese than I should.
