About me?

I am a member of the NPC, and have competed in figure, light weight bodybuilding, and fitness - I'm sticking with fitness! I have my B.S. in Exercise Science. I am an ACSM certified personal trainer and have AFAA and Johnny G Spinning (Mad Dogg) certifications. I love personal training and teaching group fitness classes.

What I like to do?

I love teaching all of my group fitness classes. I like that I can be creative to keep people motivated and excited to workout. When I have some free time I love to cook, travel, and read...everything science/health related. I'm addicted!

What is your favorite body part?

It’s a tie between my Glutes and Delts.

If you found a million dollars, what would you do with it?

Find the owner and ask if I could split it with them.

What frustrates you more than anything?

People who refuse change their ways and/or not have an open mind about it, even if their health is at risk.

What is your favorite and least favorite exercise?

I like any variation of a DeadLift. I'm not a huge fan of running.

How many times a day do you eat?

6 times a day.

How many times a week do you train?

5 Days a week, and when I'm cutting I'm there twice a day.

Do you have a story you want to share?

Everyone finds a time at some point in their lives where they want to make improvements in their lifestyle, but are unsure how to go about making these changes. My sophomore year in college I found myself about 15 lbs heavier and was unsure what to do about it because I never needed to worry about keeping active when I participated in sports. I knew I could push my body to do more – I needed a place to start. I cleaned up what I was eating and had added support in the gym from the love of my life. Together we watched our bodies transform in a matter of 12 weeks. I could not have done it without him. Most of us when we start need that motivation. The best motivation comes from the one’s you love!
