I first gained interest in fitness as a young teen by participating in running track, dance, and other various sports. The need to build muscle and get stronger (I was very skinny) sparked an interest which quickly developed into a passion. Since then, I’ve dedicated my career to understanding the most effective ways to build lean muscle mass, improve muscular endurance, and increase strength — all through resistance training.This career path was the obvious choice for me as I have a natural ability to teach people and motivate them to understand and trust the training methods I have learned in my more than two decades as a personal trainer. This knowledge has helped me design effective, goal-oriented training programs, which are easy to understand, manageable, and most importantly, fun!

My fitness career started in my early twenties, teaching aerobic dance and fitness classes at the YMCA in Brandon, Manitoba. Shortly after, I worked as a fitness supervisor for the Manitoba Fitness Council, where I certified instructors. I furthered my education by attending Brandon University, and earning my Bachelor’s in Sport and Recreation, with a minor in Rehab. I then went on to become a certified CanFitPro personal trainer, and eventually a CanFitPro Trainer of Trainers for Fitness, Personal Training, and Old Age Fitness disciplines.
I really enjoy teaching classes, especially my spin and chiselled programs we run here at the Lewis Centre. I love watching my clients and participants become more physically fit and make positive changes in their lives.
