Bio: Although I was a cheerleader growing up, I wouldn’t say I was in great shape; I mostly did it for the social points. Aside from that, I had no athletic proclivities until I found myself a pudgy college student and decided that I needed to make a change so I hopped on the Globo Gym bandwagon. I actually really liked it for a while, and even spent three years as an NPC Bikini Competitor where I competed at the National level. The problem was that I was spending all of this time in the gym focusing on what my body looked like, but not how it performed or how I felt.
After a while, I experienced severe burnout and I knew that I needed a change, so in 2014 I began to focus on functional fitness and never looked back.
Today, I take a holistic approach to my personal fitness and coaching by incorporating functional fitness, yoga, targeted accessory work, and every opportunity to get outdoors.
I love working with all athletes, but have a special place in my heart for beginners. It's so exciting to see people progress and do things they never knew they could!
