After graduating from UCF Orlando with an Bachelor's in Health Administration and a graduate degree in Business Management, I realized my true passion was for health and fitness. I wanted to advance my knowledge base and soon after graduation earned the acclaimed CSCS Certification through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Over the next three years I gained experience training clientele in athletics, post- and pre-habilitation and disease risk populations. With over 11 years of health and fitness experience, I have seen some evolutions and fads in the industry. I clearly understand mastering of the basics of program design leads the path toward elite fitness and the overreaching goal of total wellness.
