I’m a certified personal trainer, orthopedic exercise specialist, neuro-linguistic practitioner, podcaster, educator, learner, and mother.

It doesn’t end there — life is way too temporary to only choose a FEW things to enjoy & be. I’m also a wife to the sweetest man, a dog-mom, a lover of research and science, a rock collector, a chronic creative who will never stop diving into new projects: embroidery? YES. Crocheting? MHM. Wood burning? GOT IT. Pottery? I’m on the local waitlist. Underwater basket weaving?! Not yet. I love reading, writing, and resting, AND I’m obsessed with being in the woods.

My number one passion in this life is to help others.

Specifically, strength training for women.

Here’s my story (I bet you’ll relate to many parts of it):

I struggled with my entrance into fitness. I was insecure and anxious. I lacked self-confidence and discipline. I WANTED to get fit, looooved the idea. The fantasy felt good in my mind. But any time I’d consider taking a real first step the overwhelm would come rushing in:

Where do I start?

Who can I trust?

Are people judging me?

Where do I go? Classes? Gym membership?

Personal trainer? (No way, those are for celebrities and rich people).

Can I afford to go to the gym?

When I DID step foot in a gym it was the same old tired pattern of being terrified, feeling out of place, not knowing how to move or if I was doing things correctly. I didn’t know how many times to do something or how to know what order to do it in. I didn’t know which weights to grab or if I was holding them correctly. I didn’t know where in my body any given movement was supposed to be turning on.

I’d do what every confused, cornered gym gal does: get on the treadmill for the Worlds Shortest Jog, get off, find a private spot with a mat, and do some random stretches before leaving and calling it a day month.

FAST FORWARD >>

I started taking classes at a gym located right on my commute to and from work. I got a second job at the front desk there to make the membership free. I saved up for a 12-pack of 1:1 sessions with AJ, one of the personal trainers. This investment was horrifying to me and I wondered at first if I had just made a huge financial mistake. I went ALL IN. And it changed my life.

I got strong.

I shook off the insecurities and judgements.

I became obsessed with telling everyone I knew about the gym.

“How do I show everyone how GOOD this can be?!”

I became a certified personal trainer.

I quit my jobs.

Moved to Vermont.

Became a full time personal trainer.

Did three years of in-person training.

Slowly transitioned into online training.

And the rest is history.

Now I run a 1:1 fully customized 12-week online program for women called HYPEFIT METHOD.

This program is packed with video & written education, detailed feedback, week-to-week custom workouts tailored specifically for you, a private alumni community, lifelong support and access to pre-made programs — all on a user-friendly accessible app. Not sure if this is something you need?
