Education & Experience

Undergrad Studies

I went to Alma College in Michigan. I played 4 years of volleyball at Alma. I was a setter and a defensive specialist. I majored in Exercise and Health Science and was the Athletic Trainer for Alma’s Men’s basketball team and the Girls softball team. Here, I learned tons about injuries, injury prevention, and injury rehabilitation. During my Senior year, I got my A.C.E. certification in Personal Training after being enamored by this career during my summer job at Bally Total Fitness. 


Graduate School

I then moved to San Diego to attend San Diego State University and pursue my Master’s Degree in Exercise and Nutritional Science. I earned my Athletic Trainer’s certification, but soon realized that I preferred to work with and help the average person as opposed to working with injured athletes. Good thing I got the A.C.E. certification, because I began my personal training journey immediately at a neighborhood gym in San Diego and then took my new experience and passion with me to Dallas in 1998.  I have had personal training clients ever since. 


Pilates Training

I have taken my career to its full extent since 2014.  I received my Pilates Beginner and Intermediate Mat certification, then taught group Pilates classes at BodyBar Fitness for many years. I have also led Pilates at yoga retreats around the world. 


 

Yoga Certification

Yoga had been a big part of my life for many years and I finally took my 200-hour yoga teacher training here in Dallas with Jayme Bushmaier and Amy Johnson in 2015 then proceeded to teach at City Yoga and lead numerous yoga retreats in Tulum, Puerto Vallarta and Jamaica.  I have learned that incorporating yoga at any level into workout programs is vital for the mind, body and soul.

 

My Online Journey

All of this education and experience paid off and allowed me to build a full schedule of clients with a waiting list. Which brings us here!

I have expanded my passion online in order to help people who I couldn’t normally reach by being in Texas with a full clientele. Now, my expertise, my philosophy and my energy can reach anybody around the globe! Access my entire video library below and workout now! For FREE!
