Throughout high school I found a love for running and participated in both cross country running and track and field. Once I went to University I got out of running but started going to the gym to work out and relieve stress from school. To this day I try to run as much as I can in the summer and go to the gym a couple times a week. With my goal career being a police officer health and fitness is a pretty big part of my life. I studied Biology and Forensic Science at Trent University in Peterborough. This was a time of self-discovery and figuring out what I wanted to do after graduating. I initially went to school for psychology and along the way found a passion in forensic science which prompted me to switch majors and pursue a joint major in biology and forensic science. My goal is to work for the OPP as a provincial constable and later specialize in crime scene investigations.

Health and fitness became part of my lifestyle when I was in university as a way to relieve the stress of midterm exams. I started with two time per week, doing 30 minutes of cardio each visit. Being able to control stress was powerful enough to keep me going. As an avid runner and competitive dancer, an active lifestyle has presented so many new opportunities. Working at Anytime Fitness has been an amazing experience. The members in the club have inspired me and continue to influence me on a daily basis.

My fitness journey started as a young kid seeing a Taekwondo demonstration event at my school. I was absolutely amazed to see what the human body was capable of. In that same day, I begged my mom to join the Taekwondo academy and there I practiced for 7 years. Later in life, in the end of my high school years I joined a gym because I wanted to get in shape as I had quit Taekwondo when I was 13 and only exercised from time to time. Since then, I fell in love with strength training. Training brought to me so many positive things in my life. Confidence, resilience, patience, discipline. I value so much everything training brought me that I chose to get as much quality education as I could to ensure I would be the best personal trainer I could be. I am now about to graduate in Fitness and Health Promotion at Georgian College, and I am already certified as a Personal Trainer by the National Strength and Conditioning Association.

The desire to help others feel that way pushed me to complete the Fitness and Health Promotion program at Georgian College. During this time, I developed a passion for anatomy, bio-mechanics, and physiology. Upon graduating, I became certified through Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology and have worked as a trainer ever since.
