With a passion for snowboarding (even though I don’t do it enough), along with health coaching and personal training, my goal is to reach snowboarders that need help staying on the mountain longer.
I grew up not really doing a whole lot because of money. Not until after high school when I went to Granite Gorge in New Hampshire for my first day of snowboarding, did I realize that snowboarding is awesome on sooo many levels. Obviously I crashed A LOT, as does everybody, but I wanted to get better because I saw other people having fun, NOT FALLING.
I ended up moving to Colorado to try to snowboard out there, which I did, but I ended up injuring myself while out there. I ended up going to Physical Therapist Assistant PTA school, so that I could learn more about the body. I did this to add to my knowledge from personal training. After being a PTA for about a year I stumbled upon health coaching. I then became a health coach, trying different niches from heartburn relief to weight loss, but I wasn’t to passionate about it, so I took some time off of health coaching. After I took some time something struck me, “why can’t I be a health coach and personal trainer for snowboarders. I mean I love snowboarding (even though I don’t do it enough) and I also love helping people lead healthier lives, so why not be a health coach and personal trainer for snowboarders. 🤯
That leads us to now. I want to help people stay on the mountains longer, and to do that I believe leading a healthier lifestyle off the lights in is the way to do it!
I’ll show you things like:
-Shifting your mindset to that of someone who deserves to snowboard. I would always tell myself that I don’t deserve to snowboard because it is too expensive.
-Guide you to healthier living NOW so that you can stay on the mountain longer, and you won’t regret all the injuries later because you prepared your body for the brutal sport of snowboarding!
