After being with Fitness Together Burlington for over 16 years all I can say is I love my job! There is nothing better than seeing a client reach their goals and become who they have always wanted to be. After graduating from Saint Joseph's College of Maine with a degree in Psychology & Exercise Science I knew I wanted to work with people, helping them to become the best version of themselves. Over the last 16+ years I earned a wide variety of certifications ranging from Breast Cancer Exercise Specialist to Orthopedic Exercise Specialist to becoming a certified SPARTAN coach. As well as all sorts of fun kookie ones in between.  My goal as a fitness professional is to motivate my clients to achieve their goals. I want to make exercise an enjoyable part of their lives. Whether its being able to get out of bed without pain, run a 5k, get off the floor easier or to just simply increase overall health my team and I are eager to help.  "Train Simple Smart"- Jim Warren

in my free time I like to
Spend time with my family and friends spending as much time outside as possible

I started at Fitness Together in May of 2016 after graduating from Colby-Sawyer college with a Bachelors in Exercise Science. From the age of 3-18 years old, I participated in competitive dance such as ballet, tap, jazz, hip-hop and musical theater. During college, I played rugby as my sport, taught fitness classes at the school’s gym for my part-time job, and interned at various Physical Therapy facilities for class credits. I personally became interested in fitness my freshman year of college when I decided to get stronger in order to perform better as an athlete. Then I switched my major from Nursing to Exercise Science when my mom got a hip replacement and my interest increased when I helped her through the therapy process. I immediately started working at Fitness Together after college because I wanted a career that helped others achieve their goals, feel better, learn how to function throughout their day pain free, and have fun working out in a safe environment!

in my free time I like to
I love to read, go hiking, hangout at my family’s lakehouse on NewFound Lake in the summer, run outside, ski in the winter, and drink coffee.

I was a Junior Olympic competitive gymnast for 14 years and retired after high school because of nagging injuries. I was always someone who put extra time outside of practice in the gym to keep strong to try and keep my body healthy. No matter what injury I had there was ALWAYS something I could do in the gym! From a young age working out I could always turn my bad day into a good one and it became my happy place. I have been working as a a personal trainer since 2015. I have worked with many demographics from ages 8 to 85!

in my free time I like to
Working out (of course), Netflix and snuggles with my dog Coco and my cat Mooch, spending time outdoors, and spending time with my family, friends and boyfriend!

I attended college at Daniel Webster & Castleton University for Sociology and Anthropology. I started wrestling at the age of 13 and in high school/college. I was a two time state finalist & state champion in 2015. I picked up rugby and MMA while in college and fell in love with health and fitness. Training MMA I learned the skills of boxing, kickboxing, muay thai and jiu jitsu. I’ve competed in both MMA and muay thai, and I hope to go back for more! Fighting is what brought me to personal training. The optimization of the human body is something that has always fascinated me & it helped me grow in the sports of wrestling, rugby and MMA. Learning how to coach/ train myself and my teammates, I fell in love with helping others achieve their goals. Kettlebells are by far my favorite piece of equipment in the gym. Being so complex, I have tried to master the skill in order to effectively coach clients on how to utilize them during their workouts. Can't wait to help you active your goals.

in my free time I like to
I’m a bit of a nerd who likes to game when I have the time to and love enjoying a weekend out with some friends and of course learning new Kettlebell techniques
