About
I received my bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Missouri-Columbia and have practiced in a variety of areas, including neurosurgical intensive care, cardiothoracic surgery, ophthalmic surgery, and post-anesthesia care. I have also had 8 years of classical ballet/modern dance training and over 30 years of personal experience with traditional strength training and cardiorespiratory exercise. My passion for health and fitness motivated me to earn the Personal Fitness Trainer certification from the nationally accredited American Council on Exercise (ACE). I feel that my nursing knowledge of human anatomy and physiology helps me to understand the variety of health issues that people may have and allows me to provide safe and effective personal fitness training. I have achieved further certifications as an ACE Functional Training Specialist, Bio Mechanics & Performance Specialist, and Senior Fitness Consultant. I also hold certifications from the YMCA in Group Exercise, Interval Training, Stability Ball Training, and I am a certified Cardio and Step Aerobics Instructor. I have been providing personal fitness training for Kansas City area since 2004, working with males and females ranging from 17 to 87 years of age. I am dedicated to reading fitness journals and attending fitness courses to seek new information to continually improve my personal fitness training abilities. I am passionate about fitness and feel that exercise is the key to a healthy mind, body and spirit. I believe that if you do not make time for fitness, you will be forced to make time for illness.
