We’ll get to the octopus in a second, but Mindi has mastered smiling with her eyes.  This is a real thing.  I didn’t believe it either until Tyra Banks told me about it.  Seriously, take a moment and see what true happiness looks like.

You’re not done looking at that picture.  Scroll back up.

I doubt this will surprise anyone after seeing this picture, but Mindi LOVES scuba diving!  Having been diving in Hawaii, Grand Cayman, St. John, St. Thomas, Bermuda, Jamaica, Bahamas, Dominican Republic, and Florida, Mindi’s diving resumé sounds like a Beach Boys song!

When she isn’t playing footsie with octopuses, traveling around the world making us all jealous, and emitting happiness through her eyeballs, Mindi is a Principal at Model Secondary School for the Deaf, located on Gallaudet University campus.  She found CrossFit last October and we couldn’t be happier she found us in July!

Welcome to the family, Mindi!  Can’t wait to see your face light up like that during our first WOD!  (oh, and I’m going on your next diving trip.)
