My desire to become a personal trainer was cultivated by my journey of overcoming serious injuries and health challenges throughout my previous athletic career and upbringing. My favorite sport to watch is basketball and my favorite styles of training include circuit training and high intensity interval training. I also place a heavy emphasis on implementing mobility and flexibility exercises to support optimal joint movement and injury prevention.
