About Josie

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education & Coaching from the University of Illinois in Chicago (UIC). I coached swimming, soccer, volleyball and track. I then continued my education by earning certifications in Personal Training & Group Exercise. I continue to live out my passion by participating and encouraging my own clients to enjoy group exercise as well as participate in triathlons, cycling, running events and water events. My bucket list included competing in Figure Competition to make my body the best that it could be. I did it and scored in the top for my age group. I loved the strict diets and commitment to training and now, I am done. I now love my life inspiring others. That is my true passion.

Training Philosophy
I strive to correct imbalances and mentor clients to achieve fitness and weight loss goals. I encourage and often participate with clients in fitness related activities throughout the community including Beach to Bay Marathon and Triathlons.
