Carrie attended her first Bikram class in February of 2007 and was immediately hooked. However, getting her to that first class was something of a challenge because she thought sweating barefoot with 50 other people in a hot room was about the craziest thing she had ever heard.

Carrie moved to the DC area from Arizona to attend Georgetown University where she completed her Masters in Security Studies. After two years of learning about everything that is wrong with the world, she had the opportunity to do something to make it a little bit better and attended teacher training in the Fall of 2009 in Las Vegas.
