I started out personal training at the age of 19 at Bally Total Fitness (remember that place). After playing high school sports I absolutely fell in love with all things fitness and nutrition. Getting certified as a personal trainer at such a young age allowed me to learn from the absolute best. I have had so many mentors along the way.

Training at the big box gyms was a great start and watching the changes unfold in my clients was so incredibly rewarding. Eventually I started training independently at a smaller family gym in Texas. But I wanted more. So I had the grand idea to open my own gym because I wanted to have the biggest impact possible on an entire community.

I moved out to Lose Angeles and opened my own studio. This was an awesome experience but I found out that something was really missing…… Old fashioned training worked in some ways but I was always telling people that nutrition and the “other” (lifestyle) accounts for 80-90% of results. One day it smacked me upside the head. I needed to help people with EVERYTHING.

Then I decided that there had to be a much much better way. Moving toward HEALTH COACHING AND NUTRITION COACHING was the best decision I ever made. I started really studying behavior psychology, nutrition science, (getting multiple certifications and learning from the best) and what it takes to break the yo-yo cycle that so many people struggle with. Once I switched to a more holistic style of coaching the results for my clients skyrocketed!

It just made so much more sense. I was able to guide people through all the pitfalls of “life happening” and keep people on track where it counts the most. Because if you’re working out 7 times a week but don’t truly understand your metabolism and how to eat properly it’s all for not!

I love what I do and have a fiery passion, a “whatever it takes” attitude for seeing people not only get results, but do so in a non-restrictive way so it’s more sustainable.

I’ve done some powerlifting and coached everyone from 150+Lb weight loss clients, figure competitors to people just trying to lose the last 10 lbs. The majority of my clients fall into that “life happened” goal range of losing 20-50 lbs. and toning up.

I am MOST passionate about working with those who have lost weight and gained it back multiple times. This isn’t just a physical journey but a mental and emotional one as well. Remember, there are no magic tricks and restricting life to death is not the way to get there.
