My Mission
My goal for every person I take on is to help you: A. reach your goals in a sustainable way that does NOT sacrifice your physical or mental health like many fad diets do, but rather SUPPORTS them! B. give you an experience where you are educated and truly empowered with all the knowledge you need to be your own fitness guide for the rest of your life :) In other words, I want to be the last coach/program you ever need to invest in one and done is all you need when you do it right! :)

Why Train With Me

I will be your biggest cheerleader day in and day out :) I will educate you, uplift you, EMPOWER you! Your health and happiness will always be my first priority <3 I truly care, and you'll see and feel that. I also have extensive, holistic knowledge to share on all things nutrition, exercise, mind/body/soul :)

My go-to workout

A hardcore lifting session, every time. Pushing my limits in the gym is EMPOWERING for me!

Healthy food I love

Can I say all of it? #foodieforlife. But seriously, cake. Healthy or not, I freaking love cake! :P

Healthy food I hate

Hard question for a foodie....olives. Pickles. Excessive amounts of mustard.

Favorite workout music

Hardcore workout = needs hardcore music! I love jamming to rock (think Def Leppard) or rap (Eminem)

What people are most surprised to learn about me

I found my passion for health by fighting through an ED in my childhood- and I'm grateful for that:)

Client stories

"Before finding Kickoff, I wasted so much time sitting in my car at the gym trying to google the "best" workout for the day. Now I never fret over workouts - they're sent to me with clear instruction in the Kickoff app. Working with my trainer via text has been such a benefit. Having that accountability was key - I beat my goal by 10 lbs, losing 40 lbs before my wedding day!"

"I have loved every single week of Kickoff. As a busy, working mom, I don't like leaving my home & family to go to the gym. My trainer Jen designs workout plans for me that work with what I have at home. She levels me up in strength when I'm ready & adjusts when I'm not feeling my best. Kickoff is realistic, sustainable & supportive. That's why it's been so successful for me!"
