From high school sports to falling in love with fitness through crossfit to getting personal programming to becoming a Certified Personal Trainer. My aspiration of going from trainee to trainer were derived from the want to help others along their fitness journey. I won't just show and tell you how to do a workout. I will tell you what it will feel like and relate it back to my personal experiences to help you get the most out of the time you spent with me.

I've been involved with exercise since high school, and fell into CrossFit in 2012.  Since 16, I've been involved with emergency services and dedicated to the belief that all humans should be able to move, lift, run, and feel the best that they can.  Being a paramedic in the urban, and suburban, settings I know how far lack of general health can take someone.  Using my knowledge from EMS, and passion for fitness, I became CrossFit L1 certified.  Continuing the message of overall health, fitness, and mobility, I love being a part of Kinetix and the community we've built.  I hope to be able to offer something to every member and person seeking help with their fitness at Kinetix.

From playing sports at a young age to making a career as a Physical Therapist Assistant to becoming a Personal Trainer, physical activity has always had an important part in my life. I joined KiNETiX (CrossFit Boomtown at the time) in my early 20’s during a rough patch in my life, looking for a change in my approach to fitness. Not only did I gain physical strength, but I was amazed by the improvement in my mental toughness, my relationship with food, how I see my body and my overall concept of what it means to be healthy.

Through the community at KiNETiX I have created some of the most meaningful relationships in my life. As a long time member of KiNETiX, I decided that I wanted to help others in the way that the coaches here have helped me. I am passionate about helping others realize their full potential and become the healthiest versions of themselves. I strongly believe in a holistic approach to health and wellness with exercise being one of the many pieces to the puzzle.
