About Me

The gym is my home from home. I joined the gym my junior year of high school and it’s been my passion ever since. I began college at UCF right after high school attempting to major in marine biology, but knew it wasn’t for me. I didn’t want to waste my time continuing education in a field I didn’t want to be in, so I took time off. I used my time off to figure out what I truly want to pursue a career in. I always loved the gym and the positive environment it brought and always thought how cool it would be to be a trainer. So I became NASM certified and began as a trainer at my gym. I started coaching March 2022 and in the mean time started taking online classes back at UCF working toward my kinesiology degree. I left the gym in September of last year so I could attend school full time in-person classes, while I lived near campus. I’m back online and home this semester where I’ll stay until I finish school!
