    Hi, my name is Lexie and I am an Ohio Wesleyan graduate from the class of 2009 as well as an ACE CPT. I grew up in Hingham before leaving for college in 2005. I have always lived a very active lifestyle both in sport and leisure. I began figure skating at age 2 and quickly developed a competitive career. During my high school years, I became an avid runner as well. While I loved competitive sports, I did not love the recurring injuries I experienced! I became a personal trainer to gain a better understanding of how and why we all injure. I have been extremely passionate about smart strength training and making exercises fit the client. I tend to think “outside the box” and apply different techniques when making exercises more ergonomically friendly. It’s my goal to coach clients on how to make exercise and nutrition pleasurable and not all consuming. When working with you, I hope I can become a “safe place” for you and someone who makes you feel heard and welcome.

    in my free time I like to
    In my free time, you’ll find me outside with my family, friends or solo! I absolutely love hiking, skiing and fishing. I have a wonderful husband, Jason and the best kiddo, William.

I love being able to help people function as their highest selves physically, and get their lives back on track, and Fitness Together is the perfect place for me to do just that.

    in my free time I like to
    I continue to work on building my own solid functionally-sound base by building lean muscle, while pushing myself beyond my comfort zone in cardio and weight lifting. I also love spending my time with my son as I am teaching him how to live a happy health life.

    I am excited to be a part of the team and the family at Fitness Together. I received my Bachelor’s of Health Science degree from Springfield College in 2017 and have been working at Marathon Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine as a Strength Coach and trainer for the past 3 years. I ran the varsity weight room at a myriad of High Schools, programming for various teams. I also assisted the Physical Therapists in the clinic executing patient exercise plans, offering personal training, and return to sport testing, bridging the gap between rehab and performance. I am recognized as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach (CSCS), making me a credible resource for all things fitness and performance! I love how all the trainers have one another’s back and how we are all able to learn from one another creating a great atmosphere for our clients. I live by my mission statement of “encouraging others to raise their expectations and smash their ceiling”, as it involves identifying and then eliminating the limiting factor allowing for growth and empowerment, that’s problem-solving in action! A great life verse I hold onto, reading "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13, NKJV) fuels that empowerment.

    in my free time I like to
    Some of my most treasured and common places I’ll be outside of training clients are; the church, the gym, the golf course, and the mountains. I enjoy the outdoors, especially beside a babbling brook in a quiet forest, the calmness and serenity is indisputable. If it has protein in it, I’ll eat it and my most commonly consumed foods are likely kale, kimchi, kiwi, and ground beef. That’s not all, but that will do for now.

    • USAW Level 1 Coach

    • CPR/AED Certified

    My name is Laura and I grew up in Westwood before moving to NYC for college where I graduated from Fordham University with a BA in Communications and Visual Arts. I worked in the tech industry for 11 years following graduation before realizing I wasn’t passionate or excited about my job. I had been an athlete my entire life, playing multiple varsity sports through high school and after college I fell in love with CrossFit and Olympic Weightlifting. I realized the gym was essentially my second home and I made the decision to quit my desk job and pursue what I love for a living and start a career as a trainer and coach. I started out working at Equinox and a Crossfit gym in Manhattan, then moved to Long Island where I continued to train young athletes and adults at a private gym. I love being a part of every clients journey to live a long and healthy life, seeing people get stronger and do things they didn’t think they could is one of the joys of being a trainer. I believe that pushing yourself physically helps you become stronger mentally and carries over into every day life.

    in my free time I like to
    Cuddle with my dog Axel, cook and try new types of food, strength train, and spend quality time with my family and friends.

    • CPR/AED

    My name is Vangel, and I've been into sports since I was a kid, especially soccer. I played it from age 9 until I finished college. Unfortunately, injuries forced me to stop playing at some point. But I didn't want to leave the sports world behind, so I became interested in helping others avoid the same fate. That's why I went to UMass Boston in 2019 and got a degree in Exercise and Health Science. This education gave me a good understanding of how the body works, and how to plan exercises and prevent injuries. I've had the chance to work with clients from Division 1 athletes in different sports to everyday people looking to improve their health and wellness. No matter what level of fitness my clients are at, it is very rewarding to see their lives change for the better. I'm dedicated to helping my clients and athletes make steady progress toward achieving their goals while keeping them safe from injuries. I'm also passionate about teaching my clients about nutrition and helping them make lifestyle changes, because giving people the tools to make smart choices about their health is essential for living a happy life. My ultimate goal is to help others reach their full potential in health and in life by offering my individualized guidance, support, and knowledge about fitness and wellbeing.

    in my free time I like to
    exercise, watch soccer and continue my studies towards the field that I am passionate about.

    My name is Manuela, and I was born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia. Since moving to the U.S., I’ve become fluent in English and Spanish, so if you’re looking for training sessions in Spanish, you’re more than welcome—don’t let language be a barrier to achieving your fitness goals!

Today, I’m a competitive powerlifter, and my love for strength and movement continues to shape my career. What excites me most about being a coach is empowering people through training. There’s nothing more fulfilling than witnessing someone’s growth—both physically and mentally—as they realize their potential. I believe that strength training goes beyond the gym, helping people become more resilient in all aspects of life. My mission is to guide and inspire you to reach your personal best, no matter where you’re starting from.
