Lexy Santiago
Hi everyone! My name is Lexy, and I’ve been proud to call HQ (formerly Metroflex) my home gym for the past 9 years! Originally from Philadelphia, PA (GO BIRDS 🦅), I made the big move to Fargo, ND, at 17, right after high school.
Here in Fargo, I’ve been blessed with two amazing children, Carson and Kennedy, who are my pride and joy. They’re my biggest motivation to stay healthy and live a balanced lifestyle.
By day, I’m a full-time teacher, and by night, I work part-time as a bartender and server. I’m passionate about embracing a lifestyle that nurtures the body, mind, and spirit. Through my journey at HQ Gym, I hope to inspire others to find their strength, balance, and purpose too!
