I've been in the field of fitness and nutrition for the past 26 years. I started my own fitness journey in 1996 when I began bodybuilding.

It is so exciting for me to help others in their fitness journey as well, whether it is in a fitness class or one-on-one personal training. I truly love watching and assisting others in falling in love with fitness just like I did seven years ago!
