My fitness journey began at a young age as I have always loved playing sports! Throughout my life, I have played touch football with friends, swimming and basketball. But my go-to sport has always been playing soccer. As I got older, I wanted to switch things up and played rugby for a couple years as a back, as well as taking weight training courses at the same time. Now I spend most of my time keeping active with my family and friends, roller blading, hiking, camping and biking. The outdoors is where I feel most at peace, especially going to the beach with my dog Stella! To me, fitness is more than just working out, it’s about self-discipline, fun and the desire to be the best version of yourself - physically, mentally and spiritually.

I grew up in Richmond Hill, but I now call Simcoe County my home. After college I spent 8 years working with youths at Children's Aid Society and Eastern Residential Services. Needing a career change, I took a job as the Assistant Manager at Anytime Fitness Wasaga Beach and developed a passion for learning the business. When the position became available, I was promoted to Club Manager at Anytime Fitness Alliston where I further developed my management and coaching skills. Today I oversee many clubs in Simcoe County with the knowledge I have gained at this organization for over 5 years. I enjoy participating in competitive sports. I have played volleyball, soccer, and lacrosse throughout my life. As a result of sports related injuries I have needed surgery on both knees, and my shoulder. My focus now is to gain strength and stay in shape so that I can continue to enjoy sports for many years to come.

My fitness journey started as a young kid seeing a Taekwondo demonstration event at my school. I was absolutely amazed to see what the human body was capable of. On that same day, I begged my mom to join the Taekwondo academy and there I practiced for 7 years. Later in life, at the end of my high school years, I joined a gym because I wanted to get in shape as I had quit Taekwondo when I was 13 and only exercised from time to time. Since then, I fell in love with strength training. Strength training brought so many positive things into my life. Confidence, resilience, patience, and discipline. I value it all so much that I chose to get as much quality education as I could to ensure I would be the best coach I could be. I graduated in Fitness and Health Promotion at Georgian College, certified as a Personal Trainer by NSCA, Powerlifting Instructor certified by ISSA, and Level 1 certified by Precision Nutrition. I look forward to helping as many people as I can reach their goals!
