“Over my years I’ve worked in many areas of the fitness and wellness industry, from high end athletes to senior citizens. I am a firm believer in being able to do as you teach, ‘you can’t take someone on a journey you’ve never been on’. After many years of working with a variety of professionals in the different fields of the fitness industry, we have been able to build a vast network of experts including top surgeons, cardiologists, chiropractors, psychologists,nutritionists, physical therapists, acupuncturists and more. These connections have allowed us to send and refer our clientele to trusted colleagues to allow for a truly holistic approach to their wellbeing, care, and plan of wellness. I personally started my fitness journey in 04 and am very passionate about helping people structure and accomplish their fitness and wellness goals. I myself have dealt with countless injuries and know first hand the dedication required to come back stronger each time. Returning to Sport/Activity has been my specialty as a trainer working with people after pt or in a hybrid method! My clients and athletes trust their process and trust me to get them to where they need to be to return to their daily lifestyle, hobby, or sport.”

“Throughout my time playing college soccer, there were 5 big takeaways for me. 1. It is never too late to begin reaching for your highest potential. 2. If you train movements efficiently the results will follow. And 3. There is a place for everyone, as long as you seek it you’ll find it. Those 3 lessons can be translated into why I train: Regardless of age, experience, or injury, reach for the stars and challenge yourself because there’s nothing worse than unfulfilled potential.”
