My Mission
The fact that humans have the capacity for change is unbelievably powerful. What especially fascinates and inspires me is when people are willing to transform into the best version of themselves they can possibly be. These changes are not only related to the physical, but mental and emotional as well. The quote, “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become," by Carl Jung comes to my mind here. Personally, focusing on improving my physical health has carried over to several other aspects of my life - helping to improve my mental health, better manage my emotional state, and feeling a sense of fulfillment in my life. I absolutely love being able to assist others through their own transformation - It is my life mission to support and educate as many people as I can relating to all aspects of fitness, nutrition, motivation, and personal development.

Why Train With Me

The trainer/client relationship is like a close friendship. The trainer is respectful, open-minded, and able to speak with compassion to the client. Both build the relationship on the foundation of trust- the client trusts the knowledge provided by the trainer while the trainer trusts that the client is motivated to learn and implement. As a trainer I will do everything to be as encouraging and responsible as possible to allow the client to continue working towards their goals.

My go-to workout

Excluding outdoor hobbies? I would probably do some yoga, followed by squats, pullups, and push-ups.

Healthy food I love

Eggs, greek yogurt, oatmeal, steak, and salmon to name a few, but the list can go on-and-on!

Healthy food I hate

I'm not particularly fond of sweet potatoes, which means no sweet potato fries for me!

Favorite workout music

My usual go-to is either EDM (dubstep or bass), alternative rock, and sometimes no music at all!

What people are most surprised to learn about me

People are usually surprised to hear I really enjoy yoga and have practiced for several years.

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!"
