Hey Guys!
I am so honored to be a part of DLD NATION & to be able to help you find and live your best life!
A little about me-
I am a wife, mother, army veteran, student, certified personal trainer and DLD Nation assistant coach.
My fitness journey began during my senior year of college in 2015 with a new year’s resolution because I was finally sick of my own shit. It was not long after that general interest became a burning passion that would change the trajectory of my life. I began learning everything I could about the science behind diet and exercise. And how human physiology can be influenced. The transformation that happened externally could not light a candle to the transformation that happened internally. I had successfully carried out a commitment to myself for the first time and that felt so empowering. I had also achieved a sense of resiliency that allowed me to believe I could make it through anything.
Shortly after, my life took a turn and that that theory was put to the test. The years 2016 and 2017 were the hardest years of my life. In those two years I was broken down, demoralized, and almost convinced I wasn’t the strong woman I thought I was. The resiliency I had found in just that previous year saved my life more than once. It gave me confidence and the courage to take control of my life and seek the life I deserved. It was through this season of my life that I truly learned the influence that health and fitness can have on someone’s life and solidified my passion for it.
It was then I realized I was committed to helping women discover the same things about themselves that I did through health and fitness. I hope to not only teach my clients the fundamentals of physiology and sustainable lifestyle practices but also the fundamentals of building a mindset that can overcome and persevere. I have a B.S. in Developmental Biology with a minor in Psychology and I am currently a student at Concordia University Chicago studying for my masters in exercise science and physiology and look forward to consistently learning and growing for my future clients.
