I love achieving my own personal fitness goals and I enjoy helping others achieve theirs!  I have been with Bob’s since April 2010.  I began as a Group Exercise Instructor, teaching Group Kick and Seniors Strength & Aerobics.  I enjoyed “exercise” as a career so much, that I decided to get certified as a Personal Trainer as well.

I graduated from the University of Evansville in 2000 with a Mass Communications major and worked in the non-profit world for over ten years.  After taking a break from that to have three babies and spend time at home, I decided that when I went back to work, I was going to do something I loved.  I am certified through AFAA as a Group Exercise Instructor and as a Personal Trainer.  In addition, I am presently working toward a Nutrition Coach certification through NESTA.

I have found that I love helping others formulate and achieve their goals.  My client base ranges from men and women looking to lose significant amounts of weight to those looking to maintain; from senior citizens whose goal is to remain independent and active, to clients with sport-specific goals in mind.  I have a special interest in nutrition and enjoy talking “food” with my clients as well.  I am a firm believer in keeping the body guessing in order to break through plateaus and grow stronger cardiovascularly as well as muscularly.  I am also a believer in smart food choices and lifestyle changes that are realistic and doable.

My certifications and education are as follows:

-AFAA Certified Personal Trainer

-AFAA Certified Group Exercise Instructor

-B.T.S Certified Group Kick Instructor

-NESTA Nutrition Coach Certification currently being pursued

-Bachelors Degree of Mass Communications

After conquering a weight loss goal of 80+ pounds (and still going), I found a real passion for wanting to help others do the same.  I do not believe in diets, but instead, replacing old habits with new habits.  That, combined with daily exercise that keeps you guessing so you will look forward to it will work for you!  It’s about a lifestyle – not counting numbers!

I graduated from the University of Southern Indiana in 2001 with a Bachelors of Science in Graphic Design and have worked in the publishing field for ten years. After having 2 kids, I completely revamped the way I lived my life and got into shape. It was then I decided that I wanted to teach others how to grab control of their lives as well.

I love helping people make a plan, hold them accountable and reach their goals. My current client base consists of women and men who want to loose weight ranging from 20 pounds or more as well as clients who want to improve upon their current physical fitness.

If you think you are busy and have no time for an exercise regimen, I challenge you to give me a try.  It takes 21 days to replace an old habit with a new one.  What have you got to loose?  Weight?

 My certifications and education are as follows:

- NETA Certified Personal Trainer

- CPR Certified through the American Heart Association

- Nutrition Coach Certification currently being pursued

-Bachelors Degree of Science/Graphic Design
