My Mission

I live and train by the motto "Principles without practice are powerless." In life, we are bombarded with loads of information, most of which is useless unless we put them into practice. Real change and growth take time and effort, and there are no shortcuts or quick fixes. However, the rewards of a healthier lifestyle are immeasurable. That's why I offer my clients a realistic, sustainable, and educational health program that they can carry with them forever. By considering each individual's intrinsic motives and long-term health and life goals, I design unique programs tailored to their needs.

To cultivate strength, it is essential to put in the effort and do the work required.

Why Train With Me

As a committed fitness coach, my goal is to offer my clients a program that is both safe and effective, challenging them while also helping them make progress in the long term. I focus on educating them on gym safety, proper lifting techniques, foundational exercises for balance and flexibility, and corrective exercises to enhance posture and core strength. Additionally, I work to cultivate my clients' intrinsic motivation and competence, empowering them to continue their fitness journey.

My go-to workout

Leg days mixed with core/stability & balance, then finish with a row machine for cardio is a must!

Healthy food I love

I'm a big fan of natural, fresh food and I make a conscious effort to limit my intake of processed.

Healthy food I hate

I have a strong dislike for only two foods, which are Tomatoes and Cooked Spinach.

Client stories

"Before finding Kickoff, I wasted so much time sitting in my car at the gym trying to google the "best" workout for the day. Now I never fret over workouts - they're sent to me with clear instruction in the Kickoff app. Working with my trainer via text has been such a benefit. Having that accountability was key - I beat my goal by 10 lbs, losing 40 lbs before my wedding day!"
