I am a board certified OB/GYN nurse practitioner and have been in Women's Health for more than 25 years. I have been a fitness instructor since 1985 and became certified through IDEA in 1989. I am now ACE & AFPA certified as a group fitness instructor and personal trainer. Currently, I own my own fitness studio where I teach small group class including spinning, weight lifting, BOSU, Resist-A-Ball, lo-impact aerobics, circuit classes and an indoor boot camp style classes. My experience includes 2 years as program director for one of the largest clubs in my town. I continue to work part time as an OB/GYN nurse practitioner in a local private office which keeps me current on the latest trends and research regarding women's healthcare. I love the combination of medicine and fitness and have found great balance in doing both. My absolute passion, however, is fitness and turning other people on to the awesome experience that is fitness!
