Trainer Spotlight

INJURIES!!! 

Not the most common response you’d hear from a fitness professional on why they pursued a career in this field, but it was definitely the reason I first became interested. 

In high school, I played football and wrestled, which led to my involvement in strength training. I would put in endless hours of training, which, unfortunately, often led to a season-long injury. 

This motivated me to learn how the human body works and the proper training protocols to avoid injury. Going into college, I already had my mind set on pursuing a degree in Exercise Science. 

I wanted to learn proper training techniques and progressions for athletes to help them achieve their most significant athletic potential while decreasing their probability of injury. 

While studying at Illinois State University, my interest in this field grew even further to help all individuals live an injury-free and healthier lifestyle no matter their fitness level. 

Once I started working with clients of all fitness levels and age groups, it has been my passion to help them achieve their fitness goals. 

Whether your goal is to improve your mobility or flexibility, increase strength performance, overcome recurring injuries, lose body fat, build muscle, or just improve overall quality of life, it is my goal to help you get there! 

When I am not at my second home, E-Town Fitness, with my awesome clients, I am most likely spending time with my wonderful family or friends, watching my Chicago sports team – the BEARS, or binge-watching The Office with my wonderful fiance, Morgan!
