About Me

My name is Erin. I'm from NJ. I've been an athlete and a nerd my whole life. I am an IFBB Pro-Fitness competitor. I earned my pro-card in my first year competing in fitness. I have yet to prove myself at the pro-level. That is a current work in progress. Prior to fitness, I was a gymnast for 15 years and was on the gymnastics team at the University of Missouri. I graduated 2nd in my high school class. I obtained a "pre-med" degree in nutritional science and then decided NOT to go to medical school. I am currently in the process of becoming a registered dietician. I will be completing my ADA internship at the Aramark Metropolitan NYC program beginning in September. For now, I make money as a personal trainer and nutrition consultant, and do most of my work out of Apollon Gym in Edison. I also have some clients at Pyramid Club in Rahway, so if you are interested in hiring a trainer, check me out at either place :) I have the most amazing boyfriend in the whole world--Jeff. We've been together for almost 3 years. He is my best friend and the one person I can always count on no matter what. I spend most of my free time with him, and I wouldn't want it any other way. I love you Jeff!!I believe life is too short to be unhappy. I believe that we determine our own happiness. I believe that nothing is impossible and that everything happens for a reason, even if at the moment the reasons do not make sense. I believe in workng for what you want and in never allowing anyone to tell you what you can and can't do. I don't believe in failure. I like challenges and I like to prove people wrong. I am quite possibly the most quietly competitive person you will ever meet. I try to surround myself with positive people and refuse to let other people's negativity bring me down. I love helping others reach their goals, whatever they may be. I love my family and I will do anything for the people that I love. Live life, Love life, Love who you are and Love what you do....and always follow your heart
