Prone to wander..
I’m just a rookie looking for some helpful tips/advice.
Anyone have any ideas about how you would have improved this image (specifically in the edit)?

Recently, I taught an Off Camera Flash class. Paige was my model for the class. We were outdoors but it started to rain. Luckily, a nearby restaurant let us conduct the class in their dining room.

Hi Nathan, let me start by saying that I'm definitely not a pro so I'll just offer my thoughts on your image.
I find my eye in a tug of war, first settling on the brightest part of the image with the walking figure, and then being led away by the leasing lines of the rails.
I tried zooming in and came up with a tighter crop which emphasizes the figure and frames it with the rails instead of the rails leading my eye away.
Hope this helps...
Regards,
Mike
