SwitchFit was created to provide consultation, recommendation and mentoring for those that need health and fitness tips. As a nationally certified personal trainer, I develop a fitness program based on your individual needs and fitness goals. With my education and certifications in massage modalities, I can also help you feel better as you work your body and become more healthy and fit.

My education in fitness started in the United States Air Force where I managed a fitness club and organized recreation programs.
