Summary

I am a driven personal trainer with a track record of enhancing client fitness levels and high retention rates at Live Limitless and Equinox. Over the years of training I have developed great motivational coaching and advanced exercise knowledge to develop personalized workout plans by achieving notable client satisfaction. I have excelled in high-pressure environments, demonstrating leadership and a passion for fitness and nutrition, while fostering a holistic approach to health and wellness.


As a waitress, in between both personal training jobs, I have excelled in people skills and learned to handle myself in different high-pressured environments. I have managed multiple tasks with a positive attitude to give excellent customer service. Waitressing has added to my ability to be an even better personal trainer.
