I'm an online fitness trainer & nutritionist, but fun fact: I’m a career changer.
I used to work in software sales (most recently at MuleSoft, later acquired by Salesforce) before I left tech to pursue my fitness passion.
After leaving tech, I taught P90X and HIIT classes on ClassPass and UCSF.
Eventually, I transitioned to 1:1 personal training and became a top-tier trainer at Equinox Pine Street in San Francisco.
Pretty soon, I developed a reputation as the “lifestyle” trainer with a fat loss approach based on sustainable habits & behaviors.
Eventually, I left Equinox to start my own business and become an online-only trainer.
Today, I work with busy professionals (worldwide!) to build the right workout & nutrition habits for a healthy lifestyle.
