My Passion For Health And Wellness
I was not always into health and fitness. It wasn’t until I was 2 years out of college when I started to pay attention to how much weight I was gaining from unhealthy eating habits and not exercising. I would make excuses as to why I did not want to make the change and they kept on building up. When I quit making excuses and put my health first I started to see a change. This really kick started my new obsession with nutrition and exercise. As I started to change my diet I was immediately seeing results. I wanted to do more. I then started to research how I could optimize my workouts. Since then I’ve combined the two to create a formula for others to succeed like I have.
I started as a Nutrition and Wellness Consultant. I began researching about the foods we eat on an every day basis and that it’s not all just about calories. I became obsessed with learning about what certain foods do to not only affect our physical but our mental health. I wanted to share my findings with others and promote the healthy lifestyle I was living.
Using both of my certifications I was able to combine my own personal fitness success together with correct nutrition recommendations and come up with a program that would improve self-comprehension of many people struggling with their weight problems and overall dissatisfaction.
What about your personal life?
Outside of health and fitness I love spending time with my family, my friends, my boyfriend and our cat, Gray. I am a city girl. I live in Philadelphia, PA and have spent the last 7 years of my life here. I have a love for country music, traveling, cooking and entertaining. If I’m not at the gym, working on my business or training clients I am looking up the next best restaurant to try, planning the next event for my friends or my family or I’m on the couch binge watching Friends with my boyfriend. I like to sign up for races, especially if it is for a cause. I have completed a 5K, a 10K, a 10 mile race and a half marathon in the last 2 years. I love to travel, especially to explore a city I’ve never been to. My dream destinations are Europe, Bali, Greece, and Thailand.
