My love for training started in seventh grade when my cross-country coach introduced me to weightlifting. That experience changed everything. It shaped my confidence, my discipline, and ultimately, the way I approach coaching today.

I've been strength training for more than 15 years. I competed as a cyclist for several years and won my age group at the Unbound 200. Right now, I'm training for the Moab 240 trail ultramarathon in Utah.

"I believe fitness and nutrition are deeply personal. The better I know my clients, the better I can serve them."

Based in Arlington, Virginia, I coach clients at my private studio, in their homes across Northern Virginia, and online. When I'm not coaching or training, you'll find me running the trails of Shenandoah with my dogs, Rigatoni and Keeper.
