My journey in fitness and performance training started as a young kid growing up in Puerto Rico, where I began to play basketball competitively at an early age. Now I am a former collegiate basketball athlete turned health and fitness trainer.

My goal as a coach is to empower people to live active lives while becoming fitter, stronger, and healthier. My passion lies in using fitness and exercise as platforms to inspire people to live their best and most confident lives.

I decided to become a personal trainer because I wanted to take my passion for health and fitness and use it to have a positive impact on others. I have learned first-hand, not only how to safely remain active and fit in the midst of these issues, but how exercise and proper nutrition are truly the best medicine.

I understand that no two people are alike, which is why no two training programs should be alike. Everyone has their own unique history, likes/dislikes, goals, etc. that have to be accounted for in their training program. It is important to meet you "where you are" and start there.

The most important part of any program is on establishing a solid foundation, then building on top of it. This allows for optimal potential and allows the ceiling to be higher.

My clients and my life experiences have shaped my health perspective lens and my 25 year coaching practice. Seeing and experiencing firsthand the various changes of life, the progress of injury recovery and all the challenges that one can encounter has allowed me to see what can be accomplished when we stretch past the limitations of what we believe our limits to be. Health and wellness grow the deepest and strongest roots when they’re no longer confined as potted plants.
