I possess nearly a decade of experience as a Certified Personal trainer and am driven by my desire to learn how to help people reach their physical and personal goals. After earning an MBA, I returned to school and received an applied sciences degree from Bryan University in Advanced Personal Training and Exercise Science. I then worked within the program as an adjunct instructor for three years. I continue to absorb as much as I can in the field as well as educate others. As a lifelong learner, the opportunity to share my knowledge and learn from others drives my dedication to my clients and my profession. Over the years I have gained experience helping clients in various goals: beginning, recovery, strength, endurance, functionality, mobility; in short continually improving and maintaining quality of life.

REViEWS
“Before I joined Forge I had a difficult time navigating the glut of information that is out there about training. Forge simplified that for me. I now have a coach who is an expert in the health and fitness field, and he has helped me to strategically plan for all my goals.”
Micah M.
“Forge has helped me fall in love with fitness again. It is now a priority in my life, and Forge has helped me stay accountable while making my workouts a habit.”
William N.
“I’m 50 years old and in the best shape of my life and feeling stronger than ever, and that all came from Forge. The plan and diet that was designed for me gave me results I wanted, and that just keeps me coming back for more.”
Jeff T.
“Forge has been the best decision I have made for myself in the past 5 years! It feels so amazing to have someone who cares about my emotional state, my fitness goals and who is just there for me.”
Christine V.
“After being paired with my coach, it was life changing. I felt connected to her, she listens to my needs, helps me meet my goals and cares about me as a human being. My coach gave me the holistic ability to really want to positively work exercise and food into my life.”
Sarah S.
“I’ve been with Forge for over 3 years now, and I have noticed a huge change in my physique, confidence and strength. My coach knows exactly what I need and when I need it in my routine. Forge has pushed me to not only excel in the gym, but in other aspects of my life as well.”
Ryan R.
“The week over week guidance that Forge offers has done a lot to improve my overall consistency in the gym. I’m the most consistent in my fitness regime that I’ve ever been, and that’s because of the guidance and accountability I receive from Forge.”
Kishan B.
“Since joining Forge my body has definitely changed – my clothes fit better, I feel better and look better. The biggest change for me since joining Forge has been my relationship with exercise and food – I’ve came to a very peaceful place with it.”
Vanessa L.
“Forge has been great! Since I’ve been working with Forge I’ve lost 20 lbs of fat while at the same time putting on muscle. Because of Forge I’ve finally been able to achieve what I’ve been striving for, for over a decade.”
Eric W.
“I was no longer suffering from chronic back pain after I was 2-3 months into my Forge plan. This was an incredible milestone for me that I have been trying to achieve for years via physical therapy and my own workouts. If it wasn’t for Forge, I don’t know if I would have ever felt this relief.”
Ramzi M.
“After joining Forge, I feel that my mental health has improved, I feel stronger and balanced, both physically and mentally. It is truly a blessing to be part of this.”
