Bio
The following year, I earned personal training certifications with International Sports and Sciences Association, the National Academy of Sports Medicine, and the American Council on Exercise. I have also earned a degree from B.Y.U. in Exercise Science and Wellness. I am NASM and CPR certified and insured as a personal trainer.
I enjoy a variety of physical activities and recently completed my second marathon. I create fitness programs ranging from training for conditioned athletes to basic, easy-to-follow programs for beginners.
