Experience matters.
So does knowing how to coach you.
I’m an NSCA Certified Personal Trainer with a B.S. in Sport Physiology, CPR and First Aid certification, and a lifetime of experience in strength training, athletic performance and competitive powerlifting.
I’ve trained high school and college athletes as well as everyday clients at different ages, experience levels and starting points. Some want to become stronger or more competitive. Others need a clear plan, consistent accountability and someone who can help them stop starting over.
My medical background includes 2,000 hours in a Medical ICU and three years working with orthopedic patients alongside physicians and physical therapists. That experience strengthened my respect for safety, clear communication and coordinated care when a client is returning after treatment or rehabilitation.
My experience around horses gives me practical knowledge about what riders need when riding a large and powerful animal. Rider conditioning should improve performance in the saddle while supporting the stability and confidence needed to train and ride safely.
As an athlete, I continue to pursue new challenges. Alongside powerlifting, I’m expanding my own training into bodybuilding and working toward competing in a future bodybuilding show. That pursuit gives me a personal understanding of the discipline required to build muscle, improve body composition, refine nutrition and bring structure to a long-term physical transformation.
You are capable of more than where you are today. Let’s build the strength, confidence and momentum to prove it.
