About me

CPT-NASM, RKC, SFL, TRX and Pre post natal certified

I got into fitness relatively late…age 42.
Before that, I was a Wall Street trader, jewelry designer/business owner. 
At age 40, I went through some unplanned life changes — a difficult divorce and the post financial crisis economy that pushed me to close my jewelry stores.

During that crappy time and for the first time in my life, I turned to working out as my dependable constant. I was going to the gym and taking strength group fitness classes.  That was my FIRST foray into strength training.
In the pursuit of self enrichment, I signed up for an intensive personal training course.  

Since starting as a trainer at the age of 42, I have coached over 3,800 sessions, trained myself to my first pull up to hit a personal record of 14 pull ups (at the age of 49!) and passed a grueling kettlebell coach exam where I snatched (exercise that brings a kettlebell from between the legs to overhead) 36 lbs 100 times within 5 minutes!  Strength is my jam.

My proudest achievements include coaching some of my female clients to their first pull ups and competing in their first powerlifting competitions.  I have a deep understanding of the needs and physical experiences of middle aged women.

I am a fit at 53 strength coach & creator of the Master Your Body Mentorship to help women 45+ get stronger & leaner. Through my one on one coaching and my small group strength training classes, I train women over 40 and teach them how to take control of their bodies by getting stronger and training consistently.
