As a mother, I understand the challenges that come with balancing family life and personal wellness. My passion lies in empowering fellow moms and women of all ages to prioritize their health and embrace a lifestyle of vitality and strength. I love running White Rock Lake on the weekends and I'm interested in helping runners prevent injuries through targeted strength training. Whether you are new to fitness or looking to get back into a routine, we can work together to help you reach your goals!

My passion for fitness was ignited in 2019, when I discovered how much I loved bicycle riding around White Rock Lake. What began as Saturday rides with friends turned into a workout routine of 3 to 4 bike rides a week, now surpassing the milestone of 10,000 miles on pavement & trails. Along with complementary weight training, walking, jogging, and weekly Yoga practice I can appreciate all the aspects of fitness from endurance, strength, balance and flexibility.
I can think of no pursuit more rewarding than to maintain this healthy lifestyle while sharing my passion for health and well-being with others through Personal Training here at the YMCA.

I started my fitness journey since in high school, I only weighed 110lbs. As I began to see positive change and improving my fitness, I started helping friends lose fat and gain muscle, it revealed that I really enjoy helping people change their situation and achieve their fitness goals. My passion for working out comes from playing various sports every week and watching sports. Whether it be working out to lose weight, jump higher, or become stronger, I look forward to working with you to reach your goal.
