I believe that fitness is meant to be fun, and that exercise is a celebration of what our bodies can do. I know that everyone has individual goals and needs when it comes to health, wellness, movement, happiness, nutrition, inner peace, and competitive fitness, and that these goals can all be achieved through strategic planning and putting in the work. There is no magic pill, there are no shortcuts, but the changes we dream of when it comes to our bodies and minds are possible and worth pursuing. 

I've always had a love for sports, dance, movement, and spending time in nature. I've also always been drawn to unconventional sports and hobbies.  As a kid I played Soccer, did breakdancing, gymnastics, dance, hiking, and trekking. As an adult I fell in love with obstacle course racing, Animal Flow, yoga, Olympic lifting, and rock climbing to name a few of my hobbies.

Over the past five years I have had the joy of serving hundreds of people in the Raleigh area grow into the best version of themselves through fitness and movement.   I'm pretty much in love with watching the people I coach transform into the best version of themselves. With this purpose and joy in helping others, I founded Vital Movement to serve others by sharing my knowledge, experience, skills, and expertise. I see every person who trains/practices/moves with me one on one as an individual, with differing needs and wants, and I make personalized plans to help you reach your goals while making it fun for you.
