My Philosophy
“While on my own journey, I realized that fitness was about so much more than just aesthetic results. I learned that a strong body is directly connected with an even stronger mind.”
Through training, I developed the courage I needed to conquer obstacles and gain independence - not only in my training but in every aspect of my life.
The confidence that I have today has been built not only upon the foundation of my Strength Training, but also through my passion for Mixed Martial Arts.
It has taught me dedication and discipline and most important, the ability to accept myself and love the person that I am today.
My Biography
“My professional background in Fitness & Management has helped me build the scientific base I need to present you with professional advice on sustainable fitness, nutrition, and habit coaching.”
I am a certified Fitness & Nutrition Coach and I first started working as fitness professional in 2004. Since then, I have earned various certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine, Precision Nutrition, the Online Trainer Academy and GGS.
I also hold a business degree from LMU Munich Business School. As a Business Development Manager I’ve had the privilege to live and work in a number of different countries all over the world. Through my career, I got familiar with the struggles living a businesswoman’s lifestyle and trying to combine it with a healthy one.
My favorite travel destination? Southeast Asia, with Hong Kong being my home for the past four years.
My Personal Journey
“I truly believe that coaching is so much more than just the science of knowing facts and applying them to training. It is about experiences and using them to help my clients through their own journeys. My own challenges have made me the person and coach I am today.”
I have a weakness for cookie dough ice cream and homemade lasagna. So as a food lover, I personally relate to any struggles with food you may be having.
Growing up, I have always loved sports such as dancing modern jazz, playing handball and skiing. When my more athletic lean body turned into a curvier, female shape, my body image and eating habits took a negative turn. I started struggling with weight fluctuations, emotional eating and feelings of shame and guilt. I was constantly trying to fight against temptations and maintain control over my nutrition.
... My Personal Journey Continued
Everything changed when I got into Mixed Martial Arts and Strength Training. My focus shifted from trying to be perfect to developing mental strength. My sights were not set on comparing myself to others but instead on gaining the confidence back in my body. I slowly learned how to master finding the balance between enjoying my favorite foods without restriction while still staying in line with my health and fitness goals.
Through my story, I hope to change yours.
