Why did you become a personal trainer?
- For me, working out has served as a means to improve my confidence, mental health, body image, and old disordered eating patterns. It is more than a stress reliever- it is a tool I can use to help promote good health for years to come; a way I can engage in the activities I love with the people I love to do them with. Through my work, I want to offer others the same opportunity to improve their lives, to achieve their goals, and to ultimately become better versions of themselves. Fitness had such a profound and positive impact on my life, and I want to guide others so they can reap its benefits as well.
