Acknowledgements & Inspiration

Tara is my why. She has supported me unconditionally in every step of my journey. Her presence has been my motivation to keep going, especially at times when there appeared to be no light at the end of the tunnel. I am forever grateful for her love and encouragement.

I have had every opportunity imaginable thanks to the love and sacrifice of my parents. The values that I aspire to live by are a direct result of witnessing their devotion to live by those same values. They are my role models in life, and to them I owe a debt of gratitude that I can never repay.

I never thought I would be here, but thanks to 3 incredible fitness professionals, friends and mentors, I have the confidence to start my own practice. Hunter took a shot on me when nobody else would and hired me for my first job in the fitness industry. I have never witnessed a more dedicated individual that lived & breathed his craft. Veronica showed me how important kindness, empathy and compassion are to being a good trainer. Her willingness to go the extra mile for her clients challenged me to grow as a fitness professional. Jeff is a US Marine and one of the most competitive people I have had the pleasure of knowing, and there is nobody that he competes harder with than himself. His grit, determination & focus are unmatched, and he is always available to give me some advice. You can visit Jeff's page here. 

Rosemary was my therapist from 2018 through 2019. The work that we did together was instrumental in unlocking my happiness, motivation, and mental fortitude. Without her, I truly do not know where I would be.

My clients have given me a renewed sense of purpose after spending years feeling like a rudderless ship. They are the reason that I love what I do for a living, and without the relationships that I have with them, this would just be another job.
