BellaVita has always been a dream for me. I began modeling at the age of 9; due to the nature of the job and body image insecurities, a big part of my life has always been health and wellness. I started working for a fitness club at a young age, to help others and pursue my interest. I have seen many women struggling to reach the stereotypical industry standard "model body" through eating disorders, and substance abuse. I first discovered the importance of a healthy lifestyle as a teenager, when my agent suggested I take diet pills before a job to loose a couple inches off my hips; I rejected the idea and resorted to cardio, and clean eating to reach my goal. Since then I have made it my mission to help others. I believe health goes beyond working out, and eating right; you must first make the conscious decision, which is why I had the vision of starting a wellness center encompassing Body, Mind, and Soul.
I am a certified personal trainer, and nutrition coach. I graduated from York University in Toronto, as a member of the Dean's Honor Roll, with a major in Labor Studies; and I also hold a Marketing Management Diploma with honors from Kwantlen University in Vancouver. As a proud Canadian from Vancouver, BC; I have represented British Columbia on a national level at Miss Universe Canada in 2006. I relocated to New York to pursue my passion for fitness, which is what led my vision to become reality, with BellaVita.
I love working out, and eating healthy, "feel good" food. My goal is to help others get in shape, and pass on everything I have learned throughout the years. As the fitness industry is constantly changing, I stay on top of the latest industry knowledge by studying and continuing my education. For me, there is no greater reward than being able to make a difference in the lives of others by helping them improve their standard of living from the inside out. I believe health is priceless, and it is the most valuable thing we have in life.
