My clients describe me as compassionate, trustworthy, caring, fun and positive. I grew up in Waukesha and attended Carroll University. During college I found passion for coaching and teaching. I paired those passions with my interest in science and the human body and graduated with high honors earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Physical & Health Education.

I previously taught high school fitness and health education at Sussex Hamilton High School, and really enjoyed creating a space in which students could develop a lifelong passion for being active in ways they enjoy vs viewing exercise and activity as a chore or punishment. In 2018 I looked for an opportunity to help more than just my students and became a certified personal trainer. I began training at a bootcamp with large groups, but have really grown to love being able to give more direct and individualized instruction to clients within the smaller atmosphere.

Outside of work, I love to be active in any way I can, especially with my Husband Kris  – mostly walking with our sweet dog Nola, hiking, and lifting weights. Being a past athlete in soccer and volleyball I love to compete & challenge myself. I have completed a handful of half marathons, a full marathon, a 200 mile relay run. I am always up for a challenge, but realized through experience with injury and health issues that there is a lot to gain in finding balance between pushing your limits and giving your body the recovery it needs from the constant demands of our busy lives and strenuous exercise. I am looking forward to working with clients to help them find this balance in their fitness and personal endeavors.
