About

As a person who has struggled with my own weight and fitness journey. I know how hard it can feel, I know how desperate it can feel at times. My studio is welcoming and friendly. I want your experience to be one of comfort. Knowing that you have someone by your side every step of the way. I am here to help you break down walls and reach your goals.

I became a personal trainer in 2008 after winning a weight loss reality show on ABC called Fat March. At my heaviest I was 420lbs. I know weight loss isn't everyone's goal. Many hope to grow stronger or want to improve their overall well being. Fitness is great mental health too. The fact is, we just need to get started on our journey. It doesn't need to be perfect.

I love making my clients smile and feel good about what they have accomplished thus far. The hardest part is getting started.

    Since childhood I struggled with weight gain. At my heaviest in my early 20s, I weighed 420lbs. I played football in high school and began performing as a professional wrestler at 18 years of age. In 2007 I particiated in a wight loss reality show that changed my life forever. The show was called Fat March. It aired on ABC in the fall of 2007. In 2008 is when I began my career as a personal trainer. From 2009 to 2015, I served as the recreation director for the City of Everett, where I promoted health and wellness programming. In 2016 I returned to doing personal training full time for the community gym that I had a hand in developing along with a franchise fitness studio in Charlestwon. Since 2020, I have worked for myself and opened my own studio in March of 2021. My studio is in Everett and that is where I presently train clients, in person and online.

    My studio offers classes that can accomodate atheletes of all levels. Personally, I enjoy working with clients that are just getting started or restarted, seniors, people with disabilities and or limitations.

    Not all trainers are the same. Some trainers will have certifications in different disciplines and modalities. I think the most important piece of advice I can give, is to interview trainers and find one that best fits your personality type. Not everyone whats to be yelled at. Some people may need a push but would rather a different approach.

    What is my goal?

    Is it about weight loss, gaining strength, improving balance, improving posture. Those are just some ideas, there are plenty more goals and, it'll depend on your needs.

    How much time can I commit to self improvement?

    What times would be ideal to have sessions with my trainer?
