I got started doing home exercises using body weight around age 16. In college, I had access to a huge gym and became obsessed with weightlifting! I got my first personal trainer in June 2011, and since then, it has been a journey of growth and pushing my limits. I competed in my first NPC Bikini competition in July 2013 and qualified for nationals, but no immediate plans to compete again. Maybe after my baby :)

I love pushing my limits and witnessing the results as I become stronger, more defined and tighter. Training is also therapy for me, relieving stress, tension, and frustration ;) I love sharing what I've learned, and incorporating my nutrition knowledge to help my clients gain optimal results.

As a nutritionist, I take care of my body for myself and also as an example for others. But I believe in balance- that life does not revolve around the gym or what you look like in the mirror. For me, life is about making a positive impact on the world around me.
