Owner & NASM Certified Personal Trainer

“Actively training myself since I was 19 years old, physical fitness, exercise, health and nutrition has been a passion throughout my life. Even before I became a NASM Certified Personal Trainer, I was constantly researching and studying physiology and kinesiology for my own interest and personal fitness goals.

In spite of being raised among a relatively unhealthy and inactive family, I was very outgoing, energetic and active in sports growing up — participating for several years in wrestling, soccer, and baseball. My experiences and surroundings motivated me to take care of my body from a young age through my physical fitness level, nutrition and overall health and lifestyle.

I want to be able to run, jump, swim, and play with my kids & grandkids someday — not sidelined because I didn’t care about my body earlier.”

“Exercising had always been something I was interested in, however I had a difficult time committing to. After a couple of years of being on and off, I told myself enough is enough and to take it seriously.

The thought of becoming a trainer never crossed my mind until I was working in a gym and had members asking me questions about how to use equipment or do exercises. After some time, the idea of helping and guiding others on their fitness journey especially in the beginning stages sounded like a great experience and definitely something I would like to be a part of.

I struggled a lot during the beginning stages of exercising and there was a lot of valuable information I missed out on. Had I seeked help through a trainer, I surely would have been more consistent and felt more confident going into a gym. Whether the goal is weight loss or building muscle, I believe that we all can relate to the nervous feelings of starting something new.

My goal as a trainer is to teach others the plethora of benefits that come with exercise and make it a fun experience!”

“Being active has always been a big part of my life. I grew up playing sports and spending a lot of time outdoors hiking, camping, biking, boating, and snowboarding with my family. As I got older, staying active became even more important—especially after having kids. They continue to motivate me to stay strong, healthy, and energized so I can keep up with them and enjoy every moment.

I’ve been in the fitness industry for 15 years, and I’m fully invested in helping others make fitness a consistent part of their lives. Seeing how much strength and energy impacted my own life inspired me to help others find the same spark.

I enjoy helping people feel comfortable and confident with fitness, especially when starting something new.

My goal is to support you, meet you where you’re at, and help you feel better through movement while reaching your goals.”

I’ve enjoyed many forms of movement for as long as I can remember: yoga, running, resistance training, aerial arts, dancing, horseback riding, skiing, hiking. I love moving my body.

I view movement as a celebration of what the body can do, never a punishment for what it can’t.

I train not as an end goal, but to build the ability and confidence to sustainably do the other things I love…

…and that’s part of what motivated me to get into personal training – I wanted to help others do the same.

I believe fitness should be accessible to everyone, and I care deeply about creating space for people who don’t always feel comfortable or welcomed in typical fitness settings. My goal as a trainer is to meet you where you’re at, help you listen to your body, celebrate what it’s capable of, and build strength and confidence while working toward your goals.
