Fitness Nutrition Specialist *In Progress American Council on Exercise (Anticipated Winter, 2025)
I have been a teacher, coach, and fitness specialist for 18 years. A former multi-sport athlete, I competed in numerous varsity-level sports at both the high school and collegiate level, primarily focusing on gymnastics, acrobatics, track and field, and cross country.
As a teacher, I have taught a wide range of movement, sport, and recreational activities and have worked with students of all ages from kindergarten all the way up to doctoral students. After leaving secondary education, I worked in the 4-year college/university sector before finally finding my permanent home in the California Community College District, where I have been for nearly a decade now. In this capacity, I serve as a tenured health and kinesiology professor, where I provide both lecture and physical activity (kinesiology-based) instruction. These courses include health and nutrition, general health/wellness, women's health, weight training, circuit training, boot camp, fitness walking, and more.
As a coach, I specialized in gymnastics, acrobatics, and track and field.
Presently, I keep healthy by exercising with a combined HITT and resistance workout 3-5 times a week combined with nutritional diets. I am a firm believer in leading by example.
I look forward to the opportunity to share what I have both studied, researched, and learned over nearly two decades in the health, fitness, and sports industries with any student wanting to advance themselves to live a healthier, happier life. With me, you will learn not only the facts and information pertinent to your subject, but also immediate, real-life application.
**All levels welcome. My teaching style is interactive, conversational, story-filled, motivational, and challenging. :-)
FUN FACT ABOUT ME: I was a music minor during my undergraduate studies and play flute, piccolo, guitar, and also sing! An active musician, I currently run a non-profit music organization that provides free concerts, food, and supplemental items to the community!
