I connect with others and challenge myself through movement. In my youth, I danced and played team sports like ice hockey, rowing, and sailing. I began teaching yoga in 2004 and later took up rock climbing, aerial silks, and weightlifting.
In 2013, I became certified as a personal trainer and, in 2014, I completed my 200-hour yoga instructor certification. This led me to open
Uplift Strength & Spirit in 2016, where my team and I coach Washingtonians to pursue their strength, fitness, and most vibrant health.
My Mission
I help people live longer, stronger, and healthier lives. At Uplift, we offer custom workouts in a safe and private setting.
As a mom of a toddler, I know time is precious. I help clients take action now to build a healthier life.
“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be."
