About Coach

My journey in sports and fitness started at a young age, fueled by a deep passion for movement and competition. Growing up, I was always involved in various sports, but my true love for athleticism flourished through Jiu-Jitsu, where I became a World and European medalist. These experiences taught me discipline, resilience, and the value of hard work. Over the years, I’ve transformed these lessons into a coaching philosophy that emphasizes strength, endurance, and a positive mindset. With certifications in CrossFit and personal training, and a specialized focus on pre and postpartum fitness, I’ve dedicated myself to helping others unlock their potential. My goal as a coach is to inspire, motivate, and guide each athlete on their journey, no matter where they start.

Turning Point

My turning point came when I faced a series of tough losses in Jiu-Jitsu, which shook my confidence and fueled self-doubt. Instead of giving up, I decided to confront my fear of failure head-on. I trained harder, focused on my weaknesses, and eventually turned those defeats into victories, earning World and European medals. This experience taught me resilience and the power of self-belief. Now, as a coach, I help others conquer their own doubts, encouraging them to turn challenges into triumphs and become the heroes of their own stories.

Motivation & Passion

My purpose for coaching is to empower individuals to break through their limits and discover their true potential. I'm passionate about serving those who are committed to improving themselves, whether they’re just starting their fitness journey or seasoned athletes looking to level up. My motivation comes from seeing the transformation in people—both physically and mentally—as they overcome challenges, gain confidence, and achieve goals they once thought were impossible. If you're ready to push past your barriers and unlock your best self, I'm here to guide and support you every step of the way.
