Having spent 35 years in the corporate world, I understand the challenges of maintaining fitness and work/life balance - as well as the challenges of middle age! I'll design a customized fitness/training program specifically tailored for you and your goals, and that most importantly fits into your life. I look forward to meeting you! And remember: The first step to getting anywhere is deciding you’re not willing to stay where you are. Contact me today, and let’s have a conversation about what you want to become!

My training philosophy
Every person is unique, in their physiology, their capabilities, their goals and aspirations. There's no such thing as a "one size fits all" workout or training plan. Carefully-designed, slow and steady progress is the ONLY way to achieve lasting results without pain and injury.
My training experience
I've trained individuals in a big-box gym setting, recreation centers, and privately - which I really enjoy most. I can give my best to each client without worrying about meeting quotas, upselling, and all the "stuff" that comes with working for someone else! The majority of my personal training clients to date have been men and women over 45, with ages ranging up to 80. Since COVID19, I have pivoted to a 100% virtual model, which I ~love~ and so do my clients! It's so convenient, and that's a big part of sticking with a fitness/wellness program.
