About Me

I have been in a health and fitness setting for most of my life. Playing 3 sports through high school, up to college, and my parents running their own fitness facility for over 10 years, it was almost inevitable that I would become passionate about making a career out of the exercise science field. That being said, I have had very rewarding experiences working with the general population who want to shed a few pounds, improve their overall quality of life, move around pain free again, or improve their physique, as well as, working with athletes who want to become more successful in their sport.

Throughout my years in the gym and working with other fitness professionals, I have found and learned that consistency, self discipline, and balance is THE secret to reaching and sustaining any and all goals. My job will be to broaden your knowledge, help you stay consistent, remain injury free, but most importantly, to ENJOY THE PROCESS.

Certifications/Degree:

Bachelors in Exercise Science at the University of Wisconsin Parkside

About me
Health, fitness, and overall wellness have been my focus for the past 8 years, but fitness has been a huge part of my life since I was very young.
It all started with my mom and dad instilling the joy of sports into mine and my brothers’ lives. Around six or seven years old, my brother Erik and I began to see the importance of strength and fitness and how it directly applied to how we performed in sports. We even created our own (very basic) workout program consisting of mostly pushups, pull-ups, sit-ups, running, and hundreds of bicep curls. Before we knew it, we were maxing out some of our school’s physical fitness tests. Comical, yet amazing to reflect on how far back fitness and health goes for me! Fast forward 12 years and Erik introduced me to the sport of CrossFit.

This sparked a fire inside of me that spurred a whirlwind of fascination in health and wellness. That fire in my heart constantly pushes me to pursue excellence in everything I do, especially nutrition, mental resilience, and fitness. With all of that said, these reasons are exactly why I am SO excited to be a trainer and coach at Form and Fitness, surrounded by an amazing team of elite-level trainers, coaches, therapists, and staff.

Prioritizing health and fitness improved my life to levels I did not know existed. Now, it is my dream to help as many people as I possibly can; showing and leading by example, how dialing in nutrition and exercise can produce the best version of yourself.

See you out there!

About me
While I have played sports my entire life, and still play softball to this day, my serious passion for health, wellness, and fitness began a few years ago when my friend encouraged me to start working out. Through this new physically active lifestyle, I decided to go to school for Science in Education and an emphasis in Health, Human Performance, and Recreation . I also pursued my NASM Certified Personal Training License while finishing school.
‍
I started my career in personal training during my final year at UW-Whitewater working with several different clients in accomplishing all their different goals.
I also completed the Form and Fitness Internship/Certification Course, which is how I came to work at Form and Fitness as a full-time trainer once I graduated.

Now I am working the job of my dreams as a personal trainer and helping people accomplish their goals! Building confidence, comfortability, and knowledge in people to help better their relationship with exercise and health is my specialty, along with all other goals and challenges you bring to me! I am confident that myself and the Form and Fitness staff will be able to help you accomplish every goal you have and more, so let’s make it happen!
