My Story

From overcoming self-doubt to empowering others to find their confidence, my journey has been one of transformation and purpose. I’m a former dancer and award-winning amateur bodybuilder with over 45 years of experience in the fitness industry (yes, I started at age five—wink!).

Life threw its share of challenges my way—financial struggles, hearing loss, and the unpredictable twists that come with growing up. While higher education was difficult to pursue, I found my calling through fitness and training certifications that helped me become a skilled and compassionate coach.

Today, I’m passionate about educating, motivating, and inspiring others to take charge of their health, fitness, and overall well-being. My experiences taught me the value of resilience, and now I’m here to help you unlock your full potential.

Let’s embark on this journey together—toward your strongest, most empowered future self.

My Coaching Philosophy

I believe wellness is personal, practical, and possible. My approach blends empathy with strategy, helping you build habits that feel doable and aligned with your values. We’ll focus on:

• Movement that energizes, not exhausts
• Nutrition that nourishes without restriction
• Sleep that restores your body and mind
• Stress management that builds resilience
• Social connection that uplifts and grounds you
• Restoration & Regeneration that honors your body’s need to recover, reset, and renew

Wellness isn’t about pushing harder — it’s about listening deeply and responding with care. You don’t need to overhaul your life — just take one intentional step at a time.
