Fitness training is undeniably my passion.

My ultimate goal as an ACE-certified personal trainer is to provide every client with a safe, effective, and enjoyable workout experience. Whether you’re just beginning your fitness journey or looking to take it to the next level, my mission is to guide, motivate, and support you every step of the way.

Starting an exercise program—at home or in the gym—can be truly life-changing. If you’ve wanted to begin but lacked inspiration, I’ll provide it. If you’ve thought about personal training but struggled with drive, I’ll help you find it. And if you’ve had trouble staying consistent, I’ll inspire lasting commitment. My goal is to help you feel strong, confident, and capable—both inside and out.

I’ve called the Napa Valley home for 40 years. My love of competitive sports like basketball, track, and tennis first sparked my passion for fitness. During my senior year at Vintage High School, I became an ACE-certified fitness and kickboxing instructor and began teaching at HealthQuest Fitness Center, where I led body sculpting and ball classes, later adding certifications in Aqua, Spinning, and Pilates.

After graduating from Vintage, I attended UCLA and earned my degree in Communications while continuing to teach and train at UCLA Fitness Center, LA Fitness, and Bally’s Total Fitness. In 2003, I became an ACE-certified personal trainer.

That same year, while working at LA Fitness, I had the privilege of training members of the Royal Family of Saudi Arabia. I was invited to continue their training in Riyadh, where my schedule quickly filled with clients from around the world. This incredible opportunity allowed me to travel to Egypt, Sri Lanka, Dubai, France, and Switzerland—an unforgettable experience that deepened my appreciation for global wellness and human connection through fitness.

In 2004, I returned home to Napa and founded NapaFit. My goal has always been simple: to bring my clients the very best—through customized training, motivation, and proven results. I’m proud to share my passion, knowledge, and experiences to help others achieve success and feel their strongest.
