Introduction

For the past 11 years, the gym has been my home away from home, just with a lot less knick-knacks and a lot more people. As someone who has dealt with neck pain from an injury during many phases of my life, I believe the importance of strength training cannot be overstated; it has therefore become the foundation of every program I create. I strive to help my clients feel confident in the gym by guiding them to discover their physical strength, while being their cheerleader every step of the way.
