I believe that everyone deserves to be coached in a way that is supportive, safe and motivating. No one will ever be turned away as long as they are willing to put in the work. Hard work always pays off and I use my own experience to help athletes realize their unlimited potential no matter their age, experience or physical limitations.
I also very much enjoy coaching clients in their nutrition journey. It's an education process that takes time and patience. I am very passionate about helping athletes to understand fueling, weight loss, macro counting, meal prep, and above all, sustainable ways to live without "dieting".
