My passion for fitness started at a young age. Born and raised in Latin America, Ecuador, I grew up around sports like Soccer, Bodybuilding and Powerlifting. It did not take me long before I joined and competed in the Ecuadorian Bodybuilding & Powerlifting Federation, maxing out a 1RM Deadlift of 425 lbs at a very young age! My thirst for sports and bodybuilding training rose substantially in my life and it became my passion. I pursued my post-secondary education with Honors in Exercise Science, Kinesiology and Strength & Conditioning in Toronto, ON and Miami, Fl.
As a Kinesiologist, Strength & Conditioning Coach and Personal Trainer, I had the rewarding experience to serve as a Strength & Conditioning Coach to professional athletes currently playing for the NFL, MLB, NBA, MLS and NHL in Miami, FL prior to relocating to Toronto to start my own business.
I am a current student looking to inspire, motivate and share my love for fitness to not only young adults but anyone else as well. I want to be able to set an example for youth today on the importance of well being and exercise. I am not only looking to personally help accomplish this goal of healthiness but also, to create a restorative space, as well as a place where we can learn to push past our limits and thrive for the utmost excellence in our mind, body and soul.
