Fitness Journey
As a child, I participated in a variety of sports, but basketball quickly became my main sport. I played college basketball at Slippery Rock University while earning my undergraduate degree in Health & Physical Education. I am currently a Health & Physical Education teacher at Dallastown, which allows me to share my passion for fitness. I enjoy working with youth and young athletes to empower them to live a healthy and physically active lifestyle.
My true fitness journey began during a high school weight training class, where I discovered my love for the gym. I remember feeling intimidated and clueless the first time I stepped into the weight room. Throughout the year my teacher guided me to build the knowledge, skills, and confidence I needed to be independent in a weight room. This class was the starting point for a lifelong path in fitness, both personally and professionally. My goal is to give clients a strong foundation and guide them to be confident movers throughout their fitness journey, just the way my weight training teacher did for me.
