As a child, I enjoyed running, climbing, and jumping! Movement has always been fun for me, and I’d like to share that passion with you. Being physically fit doesn't have to feel like a chore. At Fitness Together, we aim to make it an enjoyable experience. I have been apart of the Fitness Together team since 2007. I believe we create an environment that helps our clients succeed.

Since I was 8 years old I have been involved in personal fitness though my gymnastics training. My training led me to compete locally and nationally in the Junior Olympic national program. I continued my career through high school and College. Spending time in the gym striving to meet my goals in gymnastics had been my passion. After graduation I continued to train students in gymnastics and realized training others was my real passion. I studied and completed a certification program through American Council of Exercise. Shortly thereafter I joined Fitness Together and started my professional career as a trainer.

My passion for nutrition and fitness began about ten years ago when I decided I wanted to start living a healthier and more active lifestyle. I was able to reach my goals and improve my overall well-being by following a consistent fitness regime and proper nutrition. I decided to turn my passion into a career and studied Nutrition and Wellness at the University of New Hampshire. I have experience working with special populations in the gym, as well as therapeutic settings. This is how I determined that my passion lies in one-on-one fitness coaching. I am excited to be apart of the team at Fitness Together Melrose and to connect with each of you one on one.

My fitness journey first began when I was playing sports growing up as a young kid. I played anything from football, basketball, soccer, baseball, and to tennis. I started working out to help with my athletic background especially for high school football. In college, I always knew I wanted to help people so I pursued my passion of helping people in fitness with a degree in Applied Exercise Science from Springfield College. From there, I have been personal training people from all various levels of physical fitness, teaching group classes, and educating people about how nutrition and having the right mentality plays a large role as well. I am looking forward to working with people here at Fitness Together Melrose, so I can truly help people become the best versions of themselves both physically and mentally by applying those same characteristics to other aspects of their lives.

I was an active child growing up but it wasn't until high school that I was exposed to more structured fitness that included weight training. My coach’s husband was a certified personal trainer and thought it was important for our team to have a well-rounded training program for injury prevention and performance improvement. As a result, I learned how much I enjoy working out, and I developed an appreciation for the importance it has both on physical health and overall wellbeing. Currently, I am in my senior year at Umass Lowell finishing my degree in Exercise Science. I came to Fitness Together as an intern this past fall and began working part time once the internship concluded. I enjoy my time at Fitness Together and look forward to strengthening my experience and improving my ability to help clients achieve their goals!

Playing sports has always been a passion of mine starting from an early age. Whether it was dribbling a basketball, kicking a soccer ball or throwing a baseball at my brother’s forehead, I loved it all. My fitness journey began when I joined the track and field team in high school. I fell in love with the process and progress that was made both mentally and physically. This sparked my interest in fitness which led me to obtain my Exercise Science degree at UMass Lowell. I really enjoy developing a connection with others and helping them achieve their health and wellness goals. I am excited to work at Fitness Together and look forward to meeting you!
