Q & A
Q: Why did you become a personal trainer?
A: I love helping people realize their goals and helping them on their way to their next level of fitness, whether it is coming back from an injury or making their varsity team.
Q: What has been one of your favorite client experiences?
A: A recent small group class I attended had clients of all different ages and skill levels and they were cheering and encouraging each other regardless of where they were in their fitness. To me, it is less about where you start, but more about how you get to your destination and that you enjoy the road along the way there.
Q: What is your proudest physical achievement?
A: Playing for a top ten collegiate volleyball team all four years of my undergraduate degree.
Q: Why do you love Orange Shoe?
A: When you walk through the front doors it doesn’t feel like your typical gym experience. You get personalized attention from experienced and energetic trainers that see you as an individual, not a membership.
