Fitness has always been more than appearances to me. Somewhere along the way, health became tied to being thin or having the “perfect” body — but true wellness is about strength, confidence, and the freedom to live life without being held back. Whether it’s climbing stairs, getting back up off the ground, or chasing after your kids, fitness should make everyday life easier and more enjoyable.

I began my personal training career in 2014 at Main Street Gym in St. Charles, where I had the opportunity to train clients of all ages — from 10 years old to adults in their 80s. I created programs for people with a wide range of needs, including those living with Parkinson’s Disease, stroke recovery, paraplegia, and autism. Those experiences shaped how I train today: focusing on individualized programs that meet clients where they are.

In 2019, I became Fitness Manager at Club Fitness, where I worked with a diverse group of trainers, but I missed the personal relationships I had built in a smaller, community setting. When COVID hit in 2020, I pivoted to virtual sessions and soon built a full gym in my home, training clients daily and reigniting my passion for one-on-one coaching.

Today, that passion has grown into AMF Fitness, now proudly located in the heart of St. Charles. With a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science, certifications through ACSM and NCHPAD, and CPR certification, I’m committed to helping people of all ages and abilities find strength, confidence, and a healthier lifestyle.

Outside the gym, I’m a husband and dad to two amazing daughters. I love camping with my family, cheering my girls on at their activities, and spending time outdoors.

My mission is simple: to help every client feel stronger, move better, and enjoy the process along the way.
