Partnering with ABC11 to provide health and fitness content

With Jennifer Hambric, Digital Producer at ABC11, in the TV studio on Jan. 16 for our Facebook Live chat

I’m honored to be collaborating with ABC11 as the health and fitness contributor to abc11.com, as part of their new community influencers initiative called ABC11 Together.

I’ll be contributing articles and video content to their site. Here are my first two:

Recently, I did a 10-minute Facebook Live chat on ABC11’s Facebook page on the topic of fitness and weight loss. We did this in their TV studio in downtown Durham.

You can see the video of our live chat here: https://www.facebook.com/ABC11/videos/10155690763002550/

The Facebook chat was a lot of fun, and I appreciate ABC11 giving me the opportunity to spread a positive message of health, fitness, and living your best life at every age.

When you work with me, you’re also helping seniors stay healthy

In addition to my communications career, I am also a certified fitness professional. I have a heartfelt desire to help older adults be healthy, happy and active. Therefore, I decided to focus those efforts as an instructor for senior fitness programs, including Silver Sneakers. My classes are inclusive and serve those of all physical abilities.

For each month that you contract with me for a project, I will provide an older adult in need with a one-month scholarship in your name to one of my classes.

Together, we can make a difference in the life of an older member of our community!

Helping disadvantaged women transition into employment

DFS-boutique — The Dress for Success boutique in Durham, N.C.

I am proud to volunteer with a wonderful organization, Dress for Success.

The mission of Dress for Success is to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.

Founded in New York City in 1997, Dress for Success is an international not-for-profit organization offering services designed to help clients find jobs and remain employed. Each Dress for Success client receives one suit when she has a job interview, and can return for a second suit or separates when she finds work. In addition to the suiting program, ongoing support is provided through a career center where clients receive expert advice from career coaches.
