I have been into fitness since I was a child. I grew up playing soccer all through middle and high school, making varsity at a 5A school my freshman year. After high school, I suffered from some life threatening trauma after having my son. Once I recovered, I became really aware of my health and wellbeing. This is when I started strength training and fell in love with it. I decided I wanted to become a Personal trainer as I became so passionate about it. I became certified in 2018 which is also when I started college at Oregon State University. I worked at the gym on campus all four years that I went to school. I also got hired on at Fitness 1440 in Lebanon, Oregon in 2020. When COVID hit I started training privately out of my home gym. In February 2024 I got hired as a trainer at Samfit. Being a trainer is very rewarding. I love seeing individuals become healthier, find themselves having more energy, being able to do things they used to not be able to do, and just overall finding joy in movement.
