Over the years, a wide array of experiences has shaped the journey to where I am today. When high school ended, my next steps were unclear. I didn’t have a concrete plan but was eager to discover my path. One day, I came across a local gym that piqued my interest. I applied, sat down for an interview with the manager, and was soon hired as a fitness manager, leading a small gym in the Chicago suburbs.

It was during my time there that I discovered a deep passion for fitness. I found fulfillment in helping others, and this newfound purpose only grew stronger as I observed the dedication of the trainers and the life-changing results they achieved with their clients. Their work resonated with me and inspired me to pursue a career as a personal trainer.

After earning my NASM certification, I left that gym to begin my personal training journey. Driven to expand my skills and experiences, I moved to Colorado, where I spent four years surrounded by nature, furthering my education, and honing my craft. This chapter allowed me to grow both personally and professionally, as I explored new techniques and perspectives within the fitness industry.

When I returned to Chicago, I launched my independent personal training business, working as a freelance trainer. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of helping countless individuals achieve their goals in weight loss, rehabilitation, strength and conditioning, and endurance training. Along the way, I’ve met incredible people and built lasting relationships with my clients.

One consistent theme throughout my career has been the positive feedback I receive from every individual I’ve worked with. Clients appreciate the compassion, understanding, and empathy I bring to our sessions, as well as my ability to connect with them on a personal level. I believe health and fitness go beyond simply losing weight or building strength—it’s about fostering a positive mindset and creating sustainable habits that lead to long-term success.

Every client who chooses to work with me can expect a transformative and empowering experience, guided by a genuine passion for helping others. Together, we’ll unlock your potential and create the foundation for a healthier, more confident you.
