This is Carla: a powerful relationship builder, wherever she is. Whether it is at home with her two kids, who she states are one of the biggest accomplishments in her life, at work operating as the lead point of contact for any and all matters specific to some of Wodify’s accounts, or at CrossFit Medford, where she coaches and works out for the last 5 years, helping others to make long-term lifestyle changes and building up a community of fitness lovers just like her.

She is a natural people person and you can guarantee being in a good mood when she is around. We saw it in the last culture week, where we managed to get the teams from US and Portugal together for a full calendar of team building and culture initiatives - the title ‘queen of selfies’ goes to her! (check the photos below)

It was her passion for CrossFit and the impact it made in her life that lead her into Wodify. She was a user for years and when she found Wodify was a local company, she loved the idea of talking about CrossFit all day: and that might be just happening right now! Learn more about Carla below.

Do you have a nickname in the team? Can you tell us why?

I don't think so - at least, not that I know of! Apparently it’s the “Queen of Selfies”!

Tell us about your academic background.

I graduated from Stockton College in NJ, with a Communications major, Business minor.

Where are you from originally?

Born and bred in North Jersey, and moved to South Jersey about 5 years ago.

When did you join the Wodify family?

January 6th, 2017.

Why did you apply for the job? What were the expectations about it? Are they fulfilled?

The CrossFit industry really attracted me to Wodify. I had been using the app for years and when I found out the company was local! The idea of being able to talk about CrossFit all day, without annoying people, was very enticing.

What is your favorite thing about working at Wodify?

Hands down, the people. They are ALL smart, funny and interesting.

What has been the most surprising thing about working here?

EVERYTHING is digital. I couldn't find a pen and notepad in the office when I first started at Wodify.

And now for some more deep questions! Biggest accomplishment in life, so far?

Managing to keep 2 humans alive. What’s more, both of them say "please" and "thank you" unprompted.

What's your favorite thing to do outside of Wodify? Do you have any weird and curious hobby? Tell us about it!

Anything that keeps me moving! If I’m not taking or coaching a CrossFit class, then you'll find me running with a friend or with Frankie in tow.

Ride in a hot air balloon. Complete a half ironman. And a more recent 'add' to this list - travel to Abu Dhabi.

Unfortunately, no!

With unlimited money, talents, whatever - what would you like to do as a career? (be ambitious!)

A forensic psychologist.

Favorite CrossFit movement? Least favorite?

Disco fries, which are a North Jersey diner specialty. It's french fries bathed in brown gravy and mozzarella cheese. Yum!

Guilty pleasure song? (be honest!)

Any song on the Moana soundtrack.

Favorite place you've ever travelled, and why?

Costa Rica on my honeymoon. It just has all the components of my type of vacation - tropical beaches, warm weather, extreme adventures, and bottomless cocktails.

Celebrity crush? <3

Favorite video game?

You will never find me playing a video game today, but in my heyday, it was Duck Hunt (did I just date myself?).

Silence of the Lambs. I love to be scared, but it also takes a lot to scare me.
