Who says P.E. was their favorite class as a kid?  That would be me!  I’ve always been passionate about fitness in some way, shape or form.  From a young age, I was always very active.  I was a gymnast, a dancer, and an athlete playing various team sports in school like volleyball, softball and basketball to name a few.  In high school I discovered my love for cheerleading.  I think I was even late to one of my softball games freshman year, because I decided to tryout for the varsity cheer team!  Y’know what?  It was worth it, because I made the team, and little did I know at the time that becoming a cheerleader would be a life-changing event for me.  My first year, I became an NCA All-American Cheerleader and later, cheer captain for my high school.  I even got to tour Australia as a CA All-Star Cheerleader at the end of my senior year.  All the hours and days I spent practicing, and going to gymnastics and dance classes were worth all the sweat and hard work, because they really made me realize how passionate I was about fitness and being an athlete.  Plus, all of that lead me to becoming a professional cheerleader & dancer for 4 years.

After graduating from college, I realized pretty quickly that I wasn’t happy sitting at a desk in front of a computer all day, and I knew that I wanted to make an impact on people’s lives and still somehow draw from my passion for fitness and sports.  It was a natural fit when I decided to pursue a career in the fitness industry.  I wanted to share my passion and help people work towards their goals, become better versions of themselves, build confidence and strength, and improve their overall quality of life.

Since 2006, I’ve been working as a fitness professional who truly loves her job and never stops learning!  I’ve worked for large commercial health clubs and private fitness studios, in corporate fitness, and in international fitness trade shows and conferences.  My career has taken me from Hawaii to Southern and Northern California, as well as around the world.  I’m proud to be a personal trainer and fitness instructor for Google and Stanford University School of Medicine, a Technogym Master Trainer, a TRX instructor, and of course, co-founder of Daily Nourish with my husband, David!  We truly love sharing our passion for health & fitness, and helping our clients crush their goals!
