Why did you become a personal trainer?
I became a personal trainer because I firmly believing in the connection between mind and body. The healthier you are = the better you feel = the more efficient and successful you will operate. I see so many people not prioritize wellness for various reasons and their bodies start to crumble. I’m here to teach and guide people to understand that it is possible to be fit, strong, and healthy without spending hours at the gym or using a ton of fancy/hard to use equipment. All I need is some playground equipment and your positive attitude.
What are your favorite things about being a personal trainer?
I love seeing people realize that working out is hard work but can be fun and doesn’t have to be the same boring routine every day. I also love seeing people achieve results and get stronger! My ultimate favorite thing is seeing women embrace weights. There is nothing better than seeing someone who wanted to be skinny fall in love with being strong and now seek that out. (No – you won’t look “manly”.)
If you could train one celebrity, who would it be and why?
This is so hard. However, I think I have to go with Amy Poehler. Not only do I think we would be best friends, but I think we would have a lot of fun. She also has a go-getter personality and a positive attitude. That alone means we would achieve amazing results.
If you had one workout style to describe yourself, what would it be?
High Intensity Intervals. I didn’t make it up-but I perfected and I will perfect it specifically for you, your goals, and your body type.

One-on-one attention. As someone who is also in school for Physical Therapy, form, efficiency, and muscle tension is SO IMPORTANT. Look around at the gym, many people are doing more harm to their bodies than good. Hire a personal trainer – especially one that has a main of goal of guiding and teaching you about your body and how we are achieving goals (cough cough – me).
I love adventuring (skiing, hiking, cycling, camping, traveling), reading, and eating. (Yup I said it. It’s possible to eat a balanced life including donuts and also be healthy and fit.)
