I always wanted to be an Interpreter for the United Nations, languages came easily to me but when I had to choose either Japanese or Mandarin in college, I switched to a double major in Psychology and Sociology keeping a concentration in Spanish and French. One day while I was working out in the city, I was asked if I had ever competed in fitness. I was a Division 1 athlete and had the physique, but competing had never crossed my mind. Well, that's where my fitness journey found it's humble beginnings. I quickly learned that my background could be easily applied in the fitness field. Clients were not only interested in changing and improving their bodies, but a transformation of the mind was also necessary to make the change in the physical sense. The mind and the body are diversely connected, which is why I think I've had so much success on a personal level with my clients. Fitness is not just about how you look, it truly is a way of life. How you perceive yourself has as much to do with how you feel on the inside as how you look on the outside. I just turned 50 this year (2019) and I feel better now than I have most of my fitness life and I have no plans of stopping any time soon. This thing we call life is an amazing journey that waits for no one, so I say let's get after it, and have fun while we're at it!
