Hi! I’m an ACE Certified Personal Trainer and AFPA Certified Holistic Nutritionist. I also have a national certification as a Stretching Specialist and a Neurological Fitness Trainer Certification through NeuroFit (Fancy words for: I help people regulate their nervous system). I am currently in the process of completing my Corrective Exercise Specialist Certification with ACE. I’ve been in the health & fitness world for 7 years now, working primarily with children (sports), older individuals (stability, mobility, strength training, stretching, nutrition), and women (stability, mobility, strength training, stretching, somatics, nervous system, nutrition). I started my career with a mission to help women feel at home in their bodies and have a safe place to explore movement and build healthy habits. I’m not your average trainer – I’m here to support you in being the best you and fostering safety within yourself while working toward your health & fitness goals.

We can train your body, but it won't make you love yourself. We need to build that foundation into everything we do.

Michelle is 35 and has been struggling with her weight since she was a kid. Her breaking point was when her arms had gotten so heavy that she couldn’t brush her daughter’s hair anymore because it was so painful to lift her arms. She came to me at 308lbs, filled with so much self-loathing that I cried for her. Spoiler alert – I didn’t help her lose the weight by focusing solely on nutrition and exercise. We worked on boundaries, self-discovery, and building unshakable love for herself to get where she is today: 121lbs down, increased mobility and stamina, and so much self-worth that her entire life from her marriage, job, and family has shifted!

I'm a knowledge junkie - I spend a lot of time with my nose in books or my laptop. I'm a single mom to 2 kids and we have 2 dogs and 2 cats - it's a full house. I love music, nature, food, and Netflix.
