YEARS OF EXPERIENCE:
BACKGROUND: I joined Fitness Together in March of 2013 after obtaining my personal training certification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine. Prior to joining Fitness Together, I spent several years working as a chef and developed a love for cooking. My fitness journey began back in 2007 when I started educating myself in health, and my love of food became my now passion for nutrition. Through this knowledge, I successfully lost 75 pounds and changed my life forever. After having changed my own life, I knew that one day I would seek a career that enabled me to help others achieve their own goals. I am currently in the pursuit of attaining a certification as a correction exercise specialist to better prevent and rehabilitate injuries.

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!

YEARS OF EXPERIENCE:
BACKGROUND: Growing up playing sports, exercise was always been a huge part of my life! Exercise is MY time, MY stress relief and well my passion! I really found my love for fitness 10 years ago the second I walked into a Cardio Kickboxing class. I felt the amazing effects of this high intensity cardio class and swore I would never stop, and well I never did! After attending group fitness classes for more than 10 years, I decided to turn this love for fitness into my career and never looked back. I have been teaching group fitness and training client 1:2:1 for 5 years and can honestly say I love my job! Each day is a new day, each client is a new journey and I can't get enough. Every day I smile knowing that I am playing a role in changing the lives of those around me. I graduated from Plymouth State University with a BS in Psychology and knew my goal in life was to help those around me.
