Biography:
As a former nurse, I’ve seen the long-term impact of neglecting our health-which is why I’m so passionate about wellness. Now, as a co-owner and coach, I’m grateful for the opportunity to support others on their journey. Fitness and living a healthy lifestyle have had a profound impact-not just on my life, but on my entire family. As a parent, I know how easy it is to put your own health last. But I also know that the habits we build today become the examples our children carry into tomorrow. I believe in living a healthy lifestyle not just for myself, but so my kids can grow up seeing what it looks like to move with purpose, eat with intention, and care for both body and mind.

Sports and fitness have always been a big part of my life. The relationships and community you build while in team sports is something truly special. If you lose that aspect of fitness, it can be hard to push yourself. That is why I love A-town! You get to be apart of a community again that is working towards similar goals all while pushing one another to achieve those goals. I love being active; whether that’s hiking, running, pickle ball etc. but nothing beats working out at the gym with people who have become your friends. I quickly fell in love with  functional fitness and knew I wanted to help others in their journey. Whether you are just starting out or are a former athlete looking to gain your fitness and community back, I am excited and thankful to be a part of your journey!
