Delano Snap Fitness Manager

Certified Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor, Kettlebell Instructor, Sport Yoga Instructor, and Fitness Nutrition Coach.

Some may think by looking at me that I could not possibly understand their weight problems. I have struggled with weight issues and body image since childhood.  I wanted so badly to be thin. I tried every diet imaginable and all kinds of supplements, most that were not good for your body. I was so consumed by being thin that in my teenage years I was hospitalized for anorexia. I had starved myself for fourteen weeks thinking I could obtain the perfect weight. No matter how much I lost, it was never enough. I had no muscle tone, was extremely weak, and still did not feel good about myself. In treatment I learned about balancing cardiovascular exercise, resistance training, proper nutrition, and core supplements.

Even though I learned what I should be doing to maintain a healthy lifestyle, it was hard for me to fully dedicate myself to change, and I did not have the guidence I needed, once I finished treatment. 

Working at Delano Snap Fitness is not my first career. I was formerly a police officer for 14 years, with various agencies and assignments. As a use of force and firearms instructor I got in better shape. Approximately five years ago when I started training for a K-9 position I started running.  I had never run before and it was the last form of exercise I would choose for cardiovascular training. I got hooked on running by the third week of training.

I have been running ever since. I currently run between five and fiveteen miles, six days a week. Approximately six months ago I began the switch over to barefoot running, for the benefit of less stress on my body and joints. I balance running with resistance training three days a week, and yoga practice to keep my core strong. Three years ago I took all the nutrition and supplement knowledge I had gained over the years and put it to the test. I started eating every three hours combining a balance of protein, fats, and carbohydrates. My weight problems went away and I didn't have to worry any longer about gaining weight.

This is when I started thinking about a career in the fitness industry. I thought it would be a great opportunity to take my fitness passion and energy, and share my experience with others that are struggling. I want others to find the freedom and hapiness I have found, by learning what the body needs. I want everyone to suceed and that comes through cardiovascular training, resistance training, proper nutrition, core supplements, and guidance. I have surpassed my fitness goals through the Advocare line of supplements that we carry at Delano Snap Fitness. Since I started taking the products I have lost an additional 7% body fat and have more energy than I thought imaginable. The supplements are great because I know they are 100% safe and natural. Many Olympians use this line and are endorsers without getting paid, that speaks volumes to me. I use Advocares MNS Max 3(core supplements-focus on weight management), Catalyst(shrink wrap in a bottle), Thermoplus(increase metabolism & energy), Leptilean(long lasting feeling of satiation), FiberPlus(since I limit my carbohydrates), and Spark(for energy and mental focus). 

I love working at Delano Snap Fitness. The owners are truely one of a kind genuine caring people, and the members here are fantastic! They are so friendly, focused on improving their quality of life, and living a healthy lifestyle. We have everything available at this facility to reach your goals; group fitness classes, personal training, complimentary assessments, top of the line cardiovascular and circuit equipment, free weights, and Advocare Supplements. I encourage you to come to the Delano Snap Fitness so I can make your dreams, reality.  

You are the architect of your life and you create your destiny.

I can assist you along your journey, to make certain, that you reach your goals.
