I am a Calgary-based consultant passionate about helping people achieve optimal health and fitness. I have been coaching human beings since 1989 and think of myself as an agent of change.
I have had the privilege of helping individuals, groups and workplaces sort through the conflicting information about nutrition, fitness and wellness. I have coached hundreds of endurance athletes toward success in athletics and personal nutrition.
On a personal level you will find me to be honest, organized, solution focused, patient, compassionate and dedicated.
I have devoted my career to helping people find their wings – and sometimes their feet.
Work with me to plan your active, healthy future and LiveSplendidly!
