My passion for fitness and assisting others is what drives me everyday. I take pride in helping others achieve their goals. My years of experience include working with a wide variety of clients through many different areas including nutrition guidance, weight loss, flexibility, strength and conditioning, injury prevention, wellness coaching and endurance training.

Since opening Empowered Fitbody my focus has been on creating an empowering, fun, supportive, strong and engaged fitness community that encourages connection.

My philosophy towards fitness is that it is the beginning of everything that most people want out of life: health, vitality, strength, confidence and self-respect. I believe a healthy, fitness-focused lifestyle is for everybody, regardless of age, prior injuries, illnesses, experience with exercise, sports or a gym. I want to assist all to be a healthier version of themselves ... physically, mentally and spiritually.

It's rewarding witnessing each person's progress—every time I see someone accomplish something they couldn’t do the week or the month before, I am reminded that this is what I am meant to do.

I had always considered myself to be in decent shape and felt I ate “healthy”. I had fallen off that lifestyle and I had no idea where to start anymore. I am so thankful I reached out and joined the Fitbody community. With making that decision, not only did I find my fitness mojo again, but I learned more about my body, nutrition and how to build lean muscle. With the program, I lost 30 lbs and countless inches. At the same time, I gained confidence and friendships.

There is a realness and a uniqueness about this program and the Empowered Fitbody community that has completely captured me and leaves me feeling so grateful. I became so inspired that I decided to become a Transformation Coach so I could help others who feel like I once felt (i.e. tired, hopeless, bloated, tired…did I say tired?).

It's my belief that while we all have one common goal: to improve our overall health and fitness. However, with that, we are all also individuals with personal goals as well. I am now more physically fit than ever before and I am also in love with how positive this program has been for my mental health. Feeling good and getting healthy directly impacts virtually all aspects of our lives. Combine the structure of the program and participating with the most amazing and supportive community around me, pushing me further than ever before, supporting me, and celebrating my accomplishments has been the biggest blessing to me.

I’m committed to offering the same support and tools that were given to me. Our bodies are our biggest investment. My mission is to assist others to realize their value, realize their potential and the importance of taking care of themselves first, to celebrate progress, and to enjoy the journey of living a healthier, positive & empowered lifestyle.
