ABOUT ME
Nutritionist, Personal Trainer, Community Leader
Personality: Driven, energetic, supportive, open-minded
Certifications: CPT (NASM), Corrective Exercise Specialist (NASM), HMCC TRX certified
Education: Bachelor of Science from the Radford University in Foods and Nutrition
I’ve been passionately working in health and fitness for over two decades. Through these experiences I’ve learned a lot about myself and what my job means to others. In my coaching programs, we work to upgrade your mindset, overcome disappointments, obstacles, perceived failures, challenges and by doing so we create a sense of self efficacy (belief in oneself to complete the task). Also, by providing education that facilitates a sustainable foundation of knowledge, creating healthy habits that turn into a consistent routine and therefore lasting results. What we do together is not a diet plan or a cookie cutter workout program.
OUTSIDE THE GYM
Originally from Virginia, I moved out to Portland, Oregon directly after college for the delicious hippie food, circus arts, music, coffee and overall vibe. For recreation I enjoy hanging my hammock, dancing music festivals, hula hooping, hiking, and paddle boarding. I spent a year living abroad in Japan with my husband, and recently moved to the Hudson Valley area in New York. We love plants and animals! We garden, have many house plants, fish tanks and four pets. One miniature poodle, Butternut, one toy poodle, Hazelnut, one of their puppies Cashew & an orange tabby cat named Filbert.
I LOVE WORKING WITH ALL DIFFERENT KINDS OF PEOPLE. I DON’T ASK FOR MUCH—JUST ALL YOU GOT!
