I was a stay at home mom for 16yrs and raised my 3 beautiful boys. I got into fitness rather suddenly and late in life. I had gained a lot of weight after the birth of my last son. I was 200lbs. My older son was diagnosed with a rare form of kidney disease at 15months old. He was in end stage renal failure and I was his only match. I was too overweight to donate and had 6 weeks to lose weight.I started running everyday. I saved his life. I fell in love with fitness then and haven't turned back. I love to inspire my clients and members with my story in the hope to help them on their own fitness journey.
