I have been training myself in the gym since I was 14 years old and have 14 years of experience as a gymnast and numerous other sports including volleyball, martial Arts, horseback riding, softball, hockey and rugby. In 1999 I received my Personal Training certification from AFAA and worked as a personal trainer at Gold's Gym in 2001/2002. I am a Nationally Certified Massage Therapist through the NCBTMB and have had a plethora of continuing education training through various institutions. I have extensive training in Anatomy and Physiology and Pathology which allows me to provide not only quality therapy and training but safe as well. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I pride myself in giving very effective and therapeutic massage as well as quality one on one personal training. I am currently the Wellness Director at teh Phoenixville YMCA where I manage the gym and staff of 25 personal trainers, wellness coaches as well as our registered dietician.
