About Me

I live in Encinitas which is basically San Diego, just 10 minutes north. I am currently a Kettlebell Instructor and Fitness Coach. I am also a Certified Clinical Nutritionist. Graduated San Diego State University in 2002 with a B.S. in Kinesiology Specializing in Fitness, Nutrition, and Health. Credentials I have achieved are International Sports Science Association,American Council on Exercise, and Russian Kettlebell Challenge Certification.I have a passion that is devoted to helping others achieve there dreams and goals when it comes to fitness. I believe when you achieve your goals it changes your whole outlook on life. It gives you the confidence to succeed in anything you want and gives you the best quality life can bring you. I enjoy working with both men and women of all ages and different athletic backgrounds. Fitness has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Exercise and a healthy diet were big parts of my childhood in both Los Angeles and Houston. I enjoy surfing, snowboarding, wakeboarding, kettlebell training, and anything that involves being in the outdoors. If it’s physical then I usually love it. My most recent passion is training with kettlebells. I am driven to teaching, training, and sharing the strength and power that kettlebell training has to offer. My quest to help people reach their ultimate goals whether it is to lose fat, gain muscle, increase flexibility, build strength, power, develop mental stamina, and a positive outlook on life has made fitness training not only my profession, but my way of life! I currently do private, semi private and group sessions. Online and Nutrtional Programs are available as well.
