I started training consistently at home 16 years ago with kettlebells , an interval timer and bodyweight exercises. I loved learning about exercises and muscles so much that when I was 19, I decided to become a personal trainer. As I was getting qualified, I got a morning reception job at a big gym and I never knew i could be that happy at 5am. It was such a great environment to start my PT career. I learnt from the other trainers and members everyday. When I was 21, I fell in love with bodybuilding. I love the commitment, dedication and process of it all. I wanted to try it myself, so I did 3 novice competitions. I had a very experienced coach, who later became my PT mentor. He taught me so much and inspired me a lot.

I was able to build my personal training business up to about 30-50 consistent sessions a week from 2013 - 2022. Every single session taught me something.
After bodybuilding, my training became less about strengthening individual muscle groups and more about developing the body as a whole by adding in gymnastics based exercises. I also train with kettlebells, plyometrics, and other strength training equipment. I love exploring how the body moves and experiencing my own strength progression.
After having my first baby, I became very intrigued at the rebuilding process after helping other women through their postpartum recovery journeys. It's all about taking the time to rebuild the fundamentals and understanding how to do so effectively.
