My Story

I have always been passionate about fitness, but becoming a personal trainer came about purely by chance. I started a career in Public Relations but the sheer pace of it all took a toll on my mental health. I decided to take some time out for myself. I'm a big believer in movement as the best medicine so I started taking some fitness classes at a friend's gym. It fast became my happy place where I could feel strong, capable and worry-free. When trying to decide on the next steps for my life, my friend offered me the chance to become a trainer, I went for it. 10 years on, I know it was the best decision I ever made.

My biggest motivator for doing what I do - my dad. The same year I decided to become a trainer, my dad suffered a stroke, which sadly lead to years of struggle being dependent up until his last breath. Losing a loved one is always painful, but the added burden of watching them suffer and seeing their independence diminish can be particularly hard to bear. If I can help in any way for people to not have to go through that pain, I feel like I’ve done my bit.

The silver lining in it is that I found my dream job. It brings me so much joy to train my clients. To see them get stronger, transform their bodies, or just simply feel their best... I love being able to play my part in that :)
