My Mission

I've always loved being strong, but having two kids and coming out stronger than ever taught me our bodies can do far more than we give them credit for. My mission is to help you train for what your body can do — build lasting strength and feel powerful in every part of your life.

"Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live." - Jim Rohn

Why Train With Me

Any good coach can write you a solid program. What I bring is a registered dietitian and research scientist's eye. I spend my days digging into the actual studies behind health and nutrition claims, so your plan is built on real evidence, not whatever's trending. I also read the body, not just the scale. And I don't just know the science, I've lived it, so I coach from experience, not just theory.

My go-to workout

Strength training 2-3 times per week with a once per week pilates class

Healthy food I love

I've been making the BEST smoothie lately with banana, strawberry, PB2 powder, and chocolate protein

Healthy food I hate

Full disclosure, I can be picky when it comes to veggies! It's a texture thing.

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!"
