AREA OF SPECIALTY:
Sports Performance, Strength & Conditioning, Functional Movements, and Running.
EXPERIENCE:
Health and fitness have always been a huge part of my life, from sports, to running marathons, to being a rehab aide. As a Personal Trainer, I utilize my experience, knowledge of human anatomy, concepts of functional exercise, and basic nutrition to design individual and group exercise programs tailored to my clients’ specific needs and goals.
MY PASSION FOR FITNESS COMES FROM:
Athletics was the core reason as to why I became involved in health and fitness. Unfortunately, I knew I could not compete as an athlete forever. Towards the end of my collegiate soccer career, I became more involved with running, weight training and group fitness classes. I was very passionate about seeking optimal health in my own life, and decided I would love to walk through the process with future clients.

TRAINING PHILOSOPHY:
Age is just a number. You are never too old to accomplish fitness goals and take that first step toward becoming a healthier you! I also am a believer in making fitness fun! If it’s not fun, it becomes a chore—and not something to look forward to.
MY PASSION FOR FITNESS COMES FROM:
My fitness journey started over 10 years ago as a member of Kenosha YMCA and working out in Group Fitness classes. This led to finding a joy in running. To date, I’ve run over 12 marathons, many half marathons, and shorter distance races, and I’ve completed a number of triathlons. My love of cardio, combined with my love of strength training, inspired me to pass on my passion for fitness to others through personal training.
MY PROUDEST MOMENT WITH A CLIENT:
When a client notices that activities of daily living become easier due to working out. I love to see clients discover their inner athlete they never knew existed. Humans are all athletes in one degree or another!
MY FAVORITE EXERCISE/ TRAINING TOOL:
Combining both cardio and strength training in a workout to get the heart rate up and build strength and power.
