About Diane

To Whom It May Concern: Throughout my life I have lived a healthy and active lifestyle and I have played and coached numerous sports. Additionally, I have always been interested in Health and Fitness information. Through my background in Physical Education and Coaching, which has left me with a wealth of experience, I have found that I love forming new relationships and helping people reach their potential of being the best they can be. For the 25 years I coached at Brown University; each day I led the gym conditioning and attended every strength-training workout the team participated in. Additionally, during my off time I have worked with people wanting to improve their fitness. I often have had friends and family ask me to create programs, to address various issues. By speaking with people, I found this was due to people finding me approachable as well as my fitness level and the energy that I showed every day. Now that I have left Brown University, I realized that I will really be able to help people. I hold a certification in Personal Training /Small Groups training through American Council on Exercise.


My favorite client story

If you want to be more healthy, more fit, and have an encouraging, kind, and extremely knowledgeable personal trainer in your life, work with Diane! I have known Diane as a volleyball coach, volleyball teammate, and personal trainer, and I've loved working with her and learning from her in every case. She brings an enormous amount of fitness knowledge to each workout as someone who has coached volleyball for decades and has been certified as a personal trainer. She has worked with me to design workouts that challenge me and fit into my busy schedule. I work from home, so making time to workout and move my body has been so important to my overall wellbeing. Diane keeps me on track. She's such a warm and positive person - she makes working out more fun and less intimidating. I can't recommend her enough! Judee
