I am the proud Owner of Transcend Training and wear the title Certified Personal Trainer proudly.  I started my career in fitness in 2012 as a Personal Trainer in a box gym. In September of 2020 I took a leap of faith to pursue my dream and vision and opened my own Private Personal Training Studio Transcend Training in Richmond Kentucky.  

Since 2012 I’ve trained all levels of fitness from kids as young as 10 to the classy age of 83. I’ve trained a variety of clients of all levels, goals, needs, and challenges.  I not only focus on building the body but I focus on building the mind for long term success. I believe once you get the mind right the body will follow. I believe in facing the real challenges in life that hold us back so we can move forward. That is my favorite part of what I do….watching people transform and grow from the inside out. 

I haven’t always been into fitness I was actually the polar opposite of who I am today. I was all over the place and rode the roller coaster of weight gains losses and all the quick fixes that never worked. My weight got even more out of control through my pregnancies hitting my highest weight of 235lbs. My brother introduced me to a gym in my mid 20’s and little did I know that would forever change my life and lead me to my passion and purpose. I was a yo-yo dieter for many years to follow into my early 30’s. I just couldn’t get it right. Few steps forward then a few back. I joined a local gym in Richmond Kentucky when I moved and over time fell in love with working out; not just what it did for my body but for my mind. The gym helped me find who I was and wanted to be; with that the confidence grew to levels I never knew possible. I love helping others experience the same level of growth it fuels me and pushes me to be better every single day.  

 The gym and what it did for my mind and body truly changed my life and I want to share that with as many people as possible for as long as I’m here. I had no idea that becoming a Personal Trainer would turn into what it has today. It’s not a job for me because the title job could not possibly define what and how I do this amazing life. I want to continue to coach and educate people on what the gym does for their whole life, how anything is possible at any age, that any life or physical restriction can be overcome, that the body follows the mind, and when you fuel and take care of your total mind and body it seeps into the rest of your life. I strive to show everyone that ever crosses my path that the power of positivity can move mountains and the human mind and body is capable of the unimaginable with the right mindset. That a healthy life and body comes from within, what we see, and what makes us feel amazing. 

I’ve trained hundreds of people over the years and have a ton of success stories but for me the success in what I do lies in what my people do when they are no longer with me, what they’ve learned from me, and how they are living a healthy positive life for the rest of their life.
