My Story
I've always been fascinated by the human body and how it works. As a kid, I used to measure my friends heights on a wall chart to see how much they grew each year, and I was amazed by the changes I saw in them.
I even created backyard bootcamps and obstacle courses for my neighborhood friends, and I loved seeing them build confidence and improve their athleticism.
​
Seeing the positive impact that fitness had on my life inspired me to pursue a career as a personal trainer and well-being coach. I truly believe that everyone has the potential to live a healthier and happier life, and I'm dedicated to helping my clients achieve their goals.
​
My passion for fitness was further strengthened after I lost several family members to cancer. This experience made me realize the importance of taking care of our health and well-being, and it motivated me to become a certified health and wellness coach.
