My journey began as a young, career minded high school girl heavily involved in sports with a parental upbringing that taught me about hard work and solid values. At the gym where it all began you could find me in my early age taking any and all of the group fitness classes and staying afterwards to soak up any information I could from the questions the members would ask the instructors to toggling around in the cardio room and cable assisted weight machines. Back then I was smart but shy and I would often take a back seat to fighting over the gym equipment and I would scurry off to watch the racquetball tournaments in between sets.

After graduating high school I perused my health and fitness passion and graduated with a degree in Nutrition and Food Service Management from San Francisco State University - between my alma mater and the first collegiate school I attended (Sacramento State) I fell in love with the science behind food, nutrition, psychology and sociology. I knew the health industry was definitely going to be a place I could thrive and feel at home.

After moving home from college I pursued the fitness industry (I swear I will never stop being a student) first getting professionally trained in group fitness then followed with: personal training, piloxing, TRX, Pilates- mat, reformer, trap, chair, and ladder barrels. And to top it off I did my pilates training first through 1 company, becoming our areas first local master trainer (National Association for Fitness Certification) and then through a second company (Balanced Body) - see always a student. 

Through years in the industry I have managed employees and departments, led a successful pilates based bootcamp program, developed and hosted local workshops and seminars, I have been partners in a local Pilates Studio and I am currently partners in a gym/spa/salon/pilates studio. 

Which leads to where I am now. I have a desire to further my connection with people; help them achieve their goals both physically and mentally through movement, embodiment, education and relaxation.
