My fitness journey began when I was preparing for Navy Dive School. I became fascinated by the mental and physical resilience people can develop when striving to reach a goal. My fitness goals started small, celebrating the little wins along the way, and eventually grew to include long-distance triathlon races. After my military service, I discovered a passion for helping clients achieve their fitness goals. This passion continues to be a driving force behind my coaching and training philosophy.

​

During a brief stint in finance, I came to understand the firsthand impact of being desk-bound that many of my clients feel today. Grappling with long work hours, a sedentary lifestyle, and the mental strain they carried, I decided that I needed to embrace my true calling: empowering individuals to enhance their physical well-being by guiding them through the complex fitness world, with expertise, kindness, motivation, and unwavering support. 

​

As a dedicated student of life, my drive for knowledge is never-ending. When I first became certified as a personal trainer I knew the learning was just beginning. I explore diverse schools of thought and participate in many adventure sports, which allows me to offer my clients workouts rooted in the latest results-driven research and real-world application.

​

I aspire to create a training environment that fosters growth by establishing a strong connection between the mind and muscles through intentional movements. We live in a world that is constantly on the move and there will inevitably be days when sleep or nutrition fall short. During those moments, I am here to offer even greater support, adapting and making the changes needed to keep you feeling your best.

During my down time, you'll find me immersed in ocean dives, trekking alongside my rescue pup on hiking adventures, or cruising on a long motorcycle ride. My constant pursuit is to discover life's balance, one mindful movement at a time.
