At 47 years of age and with 5 years experience in the fitness industry as a Personal Trainer and Pilates Instructor, I work with one-on-one clients and groups who are looking to improve their lives through weight loss, mental and physical wellbeing, transition through life changing circumstances or just to be involved in a sharing community atmosphere while becoming fit and healthier.

I’m inspired to gain greater knowledge and expertise in all areas of my work. I strive for greater personal growth through mental, emotional and physical challenges. I believe my constant striving to better myself provides an element of leadership, which I draw on when working with my clients.

Examples of the how I have expanded my knowledge and skill set include qualifying as a Life Coach and Wellness Coach, and undertaking a Styling and Imaging Consulting qualification. Using these skills, I have successfully assisted many clients to achieve their goals.

In the past four years, I have also trained clients to successfully complete trekking goals. I personally have trekked the Kokoda Track in Papua New Guinea, remote areas of the Andes in Peru, climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and recently trekked the Sandakan Death March and climbed Mt. Kinabalu in Borneo. I am the Melbourne contact for “Wild Women on Top”, a women’s only trekking company, based in Sydney.

I am also co-owner of another business, “Living You”, inspiring fitness and wellness in teachers and staff in local primary schools and high schools. I regularly speak on nutrition, exercise and team building in these schools.

I am in the process of writing a collection of five books to support clients and the general public to create the best version of themselves.
