    About Me:
    "“My first experience in the world of fitness came as a teenager joining an MMA gym. Over ten years I saw countless lives, including my own, be transformed by embracing a healthy lifestyle. As I have learned and grown in fitness, I have developed a love for helping others find not only what works for them, but what makes them want to work for themselves toward healthier, happier lives overall. I like to blend a traditional approach to training with the mindset and some techniques from my martial arts training to create a mindful, balanced, and individualized experience that gets the job done, and done well.”"

    About Me:
    "For the last 6 years I have been a Beachbody Health and Fitness Coach. After hosting my first very own private Facebook group (6 years ago), I immediately knew fitness and supporting others was a strong passion of mine. That passion came from seeing and hearing how my customers felt and reacted after seeing their own personal goals achieved, and learning how easy and rewarding it is to live a healthier lifestyle. Helping others to feel great about themselves by standing along side of them through the gains and the fails is an unexplained feeling. I use my past personal experiences, along with what I have learned from Beachbody and ISSA to help others reach their goals. My objective as a personal trainer is to help others feel good about themselves on the inside and out."
