MY STORY
I am a passionate fitness professional that focuses on running a successful fitness business, motherhood, and until 2019 competing on a global stage (Where I won a Pro Card at The WBFF Pro event in London at the 02 arena). I have enjoyed the best of both local and global education within the fitness industry and I love sharing my knowledge and experience with my clients and followers over various social & digital platforms.
Currently I am based in Sydney Australia. I am a PT at a private gym and run small group classes as well.
