Grew up in Taunton and have lived in NB since 2001. Wife & mother ❤

I was inspired to become a personal trainer when I was in my mid 20’s and suffering from severe joint inflammation. I hired a personal trainer to help me get strong again and I never looked back. I’ve been training clients since 2005 and have worked out of my home, gyms, country clubs, clients’ homes, small studios, and chiropractor & physical therapy offices.

In addition to co-owning and coaching at Boutique Fitness, I am involved in local organizations.

• Team captain for the AMHS competitive rowing team
