16 || FITNESS MAGAZINE || JULY 2015is the perfect time and place for a good book. And finally, I%u2019m not overly enthusiastic about airplane food, so having a yummy snack in my bag is essential. Butterfinger anyone?FMM: When you have %u201cdown time%u201d away from the hustle and bustle of your career, what are some of your favorite activities? DD: I%u2019m a self-professed foodie, and I love wine, so one of my favorite past times is checking out new restaurants. I%u2019m lucky because LA has such an incredible variety from the world%u2019s top chefs! I also love to travel. A few months ago I visited Brazil and before that I spent a couple weeks in Italy. I love exploring new places, hitting all the cheesy tourist hot spots and, of course, trying the local food!FMM: What is your motto or advice you live by? DD: Carpe Diem%u2026seize the day! We only get one life to live so live it to the fullest! I may not always succeed in everything I do, but I ALWAYS try new experiences and go for what I want, so I never look back with regret.FMM: What are your plans for the future? Personally and professionally? DD: I%u2019ve been working hard for the last few months on Fit To Hit so I%u2019m excited to see it premier on July 26th! In addition to my on-camera work that I love, I%u2019m looking forward to doing more producing, writing, and working on the other side of the camera. I love the creative process of building a project from the ground up! On the personal front, I%u2019ve been married for a couple years now so I%u2019m still enjoying being a %u201cnewly wed%u201d and doing life with my partner in crime, Ethan Erickson. And I love being a doggy mommy to my Brittany Spaniel, Zoey. We rescued her from a shelter a couple years ago and she%u2019s amazing. Life is pretty good right now, but I%u2019m excited for all the new adventures to come!FMM: Is there anything you would like MOST readers to know about you?
