In 2018, after having spent most of my career in business management, I was looking for a new challenge and a job change. Fitness has been a priority to me for as long as I can remember, and I realized I could turn that passion into my profession. I became a certified personal trainer in 2019 and began the transition from the “business world” to the “fitness world” by leading group fitness classes at senior centers. While my specialization is in senior fitness, I love training people of all ages and have found Fitness Together to be a wonderful place to pursue my passion. What I enjoy most about working at FT are the clients and the staff! The clients here are fun, thoughtful, energetic people who work hard to improve the quality of their lives through exercise. Working with them inspires me to become the best trainer I can be. The staff at FT is second to none. It is a joy to work alongside people who sincerely care about helping others and who take pride in their work.

I am originally from Jeffersonville, Indiana but I've also lived in Florida and Mississippi. In first grade, my family finally settled in Georgia so this is home! Growing up I was always interested in sports and physical exercise. Many years ago, I became very interested in fitness so I began reading and watching videos...learning all that I could about exercise, workouts, how to challenge and change the body. It was while I was teaching myself that I realized I really wanted to teach others. My passion is helping people be the best that they can be in all areas of their lives so at Fitness Together, I get to do what I've always wanted to do every day.

I was born in Florida but have lived in Georgia most of my life. I have one younger brother and as a kid, I did martial arts and had a love for action movies and anime. That led me to pursue other sports as I got older and in high school, I was a sprinter and jumper. Athletics fueled my passion for fitness and led me to discovering that I could have a career in helping others gain better health and fitness! I received my Bachelor's degree in Exercise and Health Science from Georgia State University and I'm certified through the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the American Council on Exercise (ACE). I absolutely love using my experience and education to help people achieve their fitness goals. Seeing the positive influence that I have on peoples' lives is what gives me purpose and keeps me going!

I was born in the Bronx, NY but grew up in Middletown. I moved to Atlanta in May of 2022 because I was tired of the cold weather up north! Also, I heard great things about Atlanta and I've always wanted to live in the south. I am the youngest of four; I have one brother and two sisters but it was my dad who got me into exercise. He would always drag me to the gym with him when I was a kid so I fell in love with exercising a long time ago. I have my degree in Exercise and Health Science and I'm certified by the American College of Sports Medicine. What really motivates me is working one-on-one with clients, helping them to become the best version of themselves. I've been training and helping people for 7 years now and couldn't see myself doing anything else!

I am originally from Louisville, KY but I grew up in Roswell, GA and still live there today! My dad is a regional real estate manager for UPS and my mom is a nurse. I have a younger brother and he is a financial analyst! I am currently at Kennesaw State University, studying for my degree in Exercise and Health Science but I'm currently certified as a Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine. Growing up, I played sports all the way through high school and was always very active. I've had many injuries myself, so it was my personal journey of getting strong while overcoming those injuries that made me fall in love with personal training. I began a couple of years ago, helping my friends and family when I realized I wanted to help as many people as I could do the same. Then I found Fitness Together! What I love most about training is having a hand in making people better, stronger and healthier but also, I love showing them that the journey can also be fun!

I was born in Newnan, GA so I’m a Georgia native! I grew up with my 2 sisters, both who are younger than I am. While I grew up playing sports, it was more recreational for me...not so much competitive. My parents and whole family have always been health conscience. In fact, my parents met in a gym! Subsequently, I grew up knowing how important being healthy was. I’ve always loved being active and so in my teens, I started lifting weights and I loved how it made me feel. I attended college at Kennesaw State University and received my degree in finance. In trying to figure out what I really wanted to do, I kept coming back to exercise and fitness. Another hobby of mine is reading and learning about philosophy and psychology because I love trying to understand how people think. Putting those two passions together, becoming a personal trainer just made sense. I love motivating other people so that in turn, keeps me motivated! I’m certified through the National Federation of Personal Trainers, and I’m CPR and AED certified.

I am a GA native, born and raised in Stone Mountain. I am an only child and growing up, I have fond memories of visiting my grandfather’s farm in Alabama every weekend. It was at a young age that I discovered the importance of hard work and my love for exercise. Helping my dad and grandfather take care of the farm and all of the animals also led to my love for horses and horseback riding! When I was 13 yrs old, my dad starting taking me to the gym with him because he always struggled with his weight and he wanted me to be healthy. I received my degree in Exercise and Health Science from Auburn University and I’m a Nationally Certified Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine. I’ve also done some coursework in Chiropractic School so I’m very excited to use my knowledge of the human body and my passion for helping others to work with the many clients at Fitness Together
