About
My fitness quest began when I was nearly 30. I learned to do squats from my couch, push-ups on my front steps, and I ran laps around the neighborhood block. It took months to build enough confidence to walk into a gym, and I still felt lost once I finally did. But, I met friends and trainers along the way who shared their time and knowledge with me. Even so, it was never easy.
With a daughter in college, another in high school, and a son in elementary, I know the struggles of parenthood and balancing schedules. I have fallen off track numerous times, and I know what it’s like to give up and let the weight pile on. I also know what it’s like to take the long, arduous journey toward lasting change—the kind of transformation that doesn’t happen overnight but endures for a lifetime. And I know it starts way before you ever set foot in a gym: your journey starts the moment you realize you want to take it.
Change is difficult, but with the right tools and continued determination, you can achieve your goals, reestablish your health, and extend your longevity, regardless of age or past experiences. When you’re ready and willing, I would love to be your guide on a sustainable path of wellness.
