I have always been interested in the human body but had no interest in being a doctor. Probably due to the fact that I’m a wimp when it comes to disecting anything. However, I didn’t let that keep me from exploring my love of science and movement.

After highschool I attended Drake University where I received a B.S. in Corporate Fitness and Physical Education. Following that I went on to the United States Sports Academy in Mobile, Alabama and received my Masters in Fitness Management, then back to Drake for my Graduate Teaching Certification.

Prior to teaching I owned and operated my own personal training business for 15 years. For the past seven years I have been teaching physical education and have never been happier. My goal as your teacher is to inspire you to love being active and provide you with the support and motivation necessary to make it a part of your life.
