A BIT ABOUT ME
After living an unhealthy party lifestyle for several years, my weight ballooned up to 230 lbs. I was unhappy and lacked confidence. After implementing many of the same strategies I use with clients, I was able to lose over 50 lbs and keep it off for good! I've chosen a career in health and fitness for a simple reason -to help people experience the same changes I experienced through my own personal transformation. My aim is to help you identify your fitness goals, design an exercise program and a nutrition/ lifestyle program that fits your needs and empower you with the skills needed for lasting change.
