I have a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Exercise Management in which I graduated as a Magna Cum Laude at UW-Eau Claire in May of 2000.  I've been working in the fitness industry for over ten years.  I started working as a personal trainer in college when I was 19 years old.  My certifications include ACE Personal Trainer, NETA Group Exercise Instructor, & AEA Fitness Professional.  I've also been certified as a Zumba Instructor, NETA kickboxing instructor, and NETA Active Older Adult Instructor.  I've worked at numerous clubs in the Milwaukee area including Wisconsin Athletic Club, Princeton Club (Formerly Motion Fitness & Racquet Club), and Highlander Elite Fitness and Racquet Club both personal training and teaching classes.  For five years I was an Assistant Director of Aquatics and Fitness at a retirement facility in Milwaukee in which I had implemented all programming and helped in the design of the facility.  I've also worked in the hospital setting doing cardiac rehab and fitness based programs for clients that need special medical attention.  I feel that with my knowledge and experience especially with working with a wide array of both healthy and patient populations I would be able to bring exceptional classes and personal training sessions to clients.
