I’m a 33-year old athlete and fitness addict. I like to help others achieve their fitness goals, whatever they may be.
I love working out and feeding my body delicious and nutritious foods to enhance my athletic performance! I also have a sweet tooth so I recently got into baking.
I am a marathon swimmer, ice swimmer, rock climber and ninja-in training.

I started rock climbing November 2015 without any prior experience. One year later, I climbed my first v8 indoors. I have no other V8 since hahaha.
