TELL US A LITTLE BIT (A LOT) ABOUT YOURSELF:
I am a 20 year old who is currently in the last 6 months of studying my Certificate 4 in Fitness to be a personal trainer and in the future I would love to continue into a nutritionist course to also offer meal plans to my future clients.
I have always had a love for sport and exercise throughout my life as I was exposed to that type of environment most of my life. I started off swimming and later progressed into Rep Basketball first at Western Port Steelers and then to Frankston Blues for my last 3 years. I also at the same time played (and continue to play) Footy. I started with Frankston Dolphins in my junior years and then moved to Frankston Bombers for my first year of seniors footy at the age of 16 then moved to Seaford Tigers and have been there since.
My love for sport also comes with continuous injuries as I am very injury prone so with my experience in shoulder dislocations and an ACL sprain, I want to help others prevent their injuries by giving them something I didn’t have access to when I was younger and help athletes especially younger athletes strengthen their joints and muscles so their injuries are minimised and when they do get injuries I want to be able to show them they can still continue moving their body and adapting to change.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE TO SPEND 12 WEEKS WITH THE VIRTUS FAMILY?
I chose to spend 12 weeks with Virtus because I wanted to get experience in a gym environment for my Personal Training Course before I am thrown into the industry. My goals are to have my own online coaching business so I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to learn the ins and outs of a coaching business.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
I want to be a successful online coach so I can travel and work at the same time and have my own merchandise brand for activewear.
WHAT MOTIVATES YOU?
I love to help others and see others strive to be better so being a Coach excites me as I am helping others become healthier. Also, Pre-workout.
WHAT ARE YOUR STRENGTHS AS A PERSON AND A COACH?
I can connect with others and love to get to know people and have a good laugh but can also have a serious chat when someone needs to reach out and I am always willing to help when I can.
WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST STRETCHES AS A PERSON AND A COACH?
I can be a bit quiet at times especially if I am super nervous.
