Growing up, I fell into the trap of diet culture and developed a complicated relationship with food and exercise. In high school, I remember being consumed by body image standards, striving to meet impossible goals, and letting food and fitness rule my life. By college, over-exercise and rigid dieting took a toll on both my physical and emotional health. It wasn’t until my own recovery journey that I discovered there was another way – one rooted in balance, self-compassion, and trust in my body.

I knew I wanted to combine my passion for mental health and fitness to support women in reclaiming their lives from diet culture.

After earning my undergraduate degree in Psychology from UConn, I pursued my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. At the same time, I immersed myself in learning about strength training, eventually becoming a Certified Personal Trainer.
