Summary

With a fervent dedication to health and fitness, coupled with a strong work ethic and natural leadership abilities, I have cultivated a successful career in both project management and personal training. My journey began in project management, where I honed my skills in organization, communication, and team leadership. In this role, I spearheaded projects and managed new hires, ensuring seamless onboarding and fostering a collaborative work environment that drove project success.


Driven by my passion for health and fitness, I pursued certification as a Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor, transitioning into the fitness industry seamlessly. As a Class Instructor and Personal Trainer, I quickly established myself as a leader, guiding and motivating clients to achieve their fitness goals with enthusiasm and expertise. My ability to tailor workout routines to individual needs, coupled with my deep understanding of anatomy and exercise science, enabled me to effectively support clients of all fitness levels.


Furthermore, my experience in project management uniquely positioned me as a client lead within the fitness company, where I took charge of relationship building and client management. Leveraging my strong interpersonal skills and dedication to client satisfaction, I fostered lasting connections and contributed to the growth and success of the business.


In every aspect of my career, I bring a steadfast commitment to excellence, a passion for helping others succeed, and a natural ability to inspire and lead. I thrive in environments where teamwork, communication, and client-centric focus are paramount, and I am eager to continue making a positive impact in the health and fitness industry.
