About me

Everything that I am passionate about revolves around fitness. I love to run, do cross-fit and to train, be trained and to help other people to train too. I live a very healthy lifestyle, and I take pride in my healthy diet and exercise plan. My love for running came after I won my first 10K run and after I participated in a half marathon in the spring of 2015.

When I was younger, I suffered from insomnia, anxiety and low self-esteem. For me, going to the gym helped me to regain confidence in myself and added structure and comfort to my routine. I would love to give this confidence back to other people too.

I decided to become a Personal Trainer after my trainer inspired me and pushed me towards my goals. I also get a lot of inspiration from my family, in particular, my brother, who owns a nutrition shop in Spain and also takes pride in his fitness and physical appearance.

I am also a teacher, which I believe has given me a lot of confidence and experience with teaching others how to work towards their goals with a positive attitude in a realistic setting.

I have learned so much about my body through these years, and I became addicted to seeing my results! I understood how much stronger I can be with the right goals and motivation! Today, I’m living a more balanced and healthy lifestyle, and that’s what I want to show to everyone that: You CAN live a healthy and fun lifestyle with a proper nutrition plan by your side. You can be strong, healthy, happy, love your body, eat good food but still treat yourself sometimes: to have a BALANCE.

Everything is possible, everything! I hope to inspire and motivate others to live a healthy lifestyle.
