I am a former Financial Advisor who, through my personal journey through injury and education with Active Life, am  passionate about helping individuals learn to prioritize their health and overcome pain and limitations.

Born and raised in South Florida, I eventually moved to Melbourne to attend Florida Institute of Technology where I received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology.  After college I spent three years in Benin, West Africa as a Peace Corps Volunteer, helping communities achieve their development goals.

I was recruited to become a Financial Advisor and for twenty-eight years I coached families to achieve their financial goals.

I’ve been an active person my entire life, including many years as a cyclist. In my forties I learned to surf and in my fifties I joined CrossFit and fell in love with weightlifting. I hired a nutritionist and a strength coach and began my journey to reclaim my health. Along the way, I experienced injury and when I was released from physical therapy, I still was not back to normal and was experiencing continued pain and limitations.

I heard about Active Life right before the pandemic began.  After my consultation, I started working remotely with my coach and never looked back.  Once again I was able to surf, weightlift, run, and do yard work (okay maybe that’s not something most people strive to do but I enjoy it)!

As I worked with my Coach, I realized that I wanted to learn how to bcome an Active Life Professional and help others find their way back from pain and limitations. It was my new passion.  I retired early and changed careers to pursue becoming an Active Life Professional. 

I realize that in some form, all of my jobs have involved coaching people towards their goals.  And that hasn’t changed. Now I'm following my passion to help others overcome the mental and physical obstacles limiting them from an active life. I work remotely, in-person and can work with older clients in their homes. I’ll meet you where you’re at and get you where you want to go.
