About me

 

Female Strength Coach

Online/In-Person/Hybrid

I grew up thriving in motion—skiing, dancing and gymnastics to name a few. In my late teens, I discovered weightlifting, sparking a lifelong love for strength training. Over the years, I’ve explored various modalities, from powerlifting to my current focus: Olympic Weightlifting. In 2020, I turned that passion into purpose, launching a career in fitness coaching—and I’ve never looked back.

As a coach, I’ve worked in gyms and online, honing my expertise in female-specific strength and nutrition. Certified through Dr. Stacy Sims’ course on women’s physiology, I empower women to build resilience and optimize their health with sustainable training and nutrition tailored to their unique needs. My mission? To create strong, confident women who train smart for the long haul, mastering nutritional habits that fuel both performance and well-being.

I specialize in guiding women through life’s big transitions—peri- and post-menopause, pregnancy, and postpartum. Whether you’re navigating hormonal shifts, preparing for motherhood, or rebuilding afterward, I’ll help you train effectively, eat to thrive, and ditch diet culture for good. My clients don’t just get stronger—they gain confidence, improve body composition, and build a foundation for lasting health.

Let’s unlock your strength, together.

My training philosophy

My mission is to help women shift their mindset around exercise and nutrition. For too long, movement has been used as punishment—for eating "bad" foods or not fitting into unrealistic body ideals. It’s time to change that. I create a supportive space where women focus on moving with purpose, building strength, and being amazed by what their bodies are truly capable of.

I also guide women to connect more deeply with their bodies by understanding the unique phases of their menstrual cycle—empowering smarter training and better self-awareness.

Let’s celebrate what your body can do, fuel it with the nutrition it needs to thrive, and move away from negative body image toward a healthier, more positive relationship with food and fitness.
