Introduction

“Guided by science, tailored to you”

Hola! Growing up, I struggled a lot with fitness. I was underweight, had terrible eating habits, and struggled with my body image. I often found myself unhappy with the cards I was dealt.

After joining my high school track and cross country team, I was introduced to resistance training and my first ever organized training schedule. At first it was intimidating, but with time I fell in love with the process. Not only did my physique improve, but I also cleaned up my eating habits and my mind felt sharper than ever before. I ended my high school career as head captain of both teams and immersed myself into the fitness world throughout college.

I remember what it’s like to not know where to start. The people who supported me at the beginning when I couldn’t find it in me to support myself are the reason why I decided to become a trainer. My training philosophy is built on the idea of passing it forward. Success isn’t linear, and life has ways of driving us off our course, but together I believe we can keep moving forward and reach your fitness goals!
