Receive Text UpdatesMy passion for fitness and health is fueled by transformation; both physical and mental. Fitness gave me more than strength or aesthetics; it gave me control, confidence, and a deeper connection to my body. I have learned discipline, resilience, and how to show up for myself. I’m driven by helping others build strength, confidence, and sustainable habits that honor their bodies and their journey.
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?I prioritize strength training with progressive overload, paired with low impact cardio around 5-6days a week
What would you do with $20,000?With $20,000, I would take the first steps toward opening a community-focused gym designed to make fitness accessible, supportive, and empowering. I would invest in a small training space, essential equipment, and proper licensing, while also prioritizing outreach, education, and affordable programs. My goal is to create a safe, motivating environment where people of all backgrounds feel supported in building strength, confidence, and long-term commitments to themselves and their community.
