Zen Biography:
Zen is from Lagrange, Illinois, and has always displayed great interest and talent in many physical activities, particularly in dance. As a high school and college student, Zen often participated with different dance teams, and would sometimes teach the other dancers how to do step aerobics. Aside from working as a certified personal trainer, she also spends her time doing stand-up at Los Angeles-based comedy clubs, gardening and painting. She received her certification from the American Council on Exercise, and believes that although physical fitness should be taken seriously, it wouldn’t hurt to include laughter in one’s routine.
Currently, Zen is one of the featured personal trainers in the Bravo reality series, Work Out. Zen works at the Sport Sky and Spa, where the gym’s owner,
Jackie Warner , trained her. Zen also modeled for Jackie’s own clothing line, but was initially not confident about her runway skills.
