Helping Pacifica Build Strength, Confidence, and Lasting Health

Fitness has always been part of my life. Born and raised on the California coast, I grew up playing sports and developed a deep appreciation for staying active and enjoying everything the outdoors has to offer. Like many people, however, my greatest lessons about health came through life's challenges rather than athletic competition.


After welcoming my two daughters in 2008 and 2011, I found myself struggling with weight gain and postpartum depression. It was one of the most difficult periods of my life, and I knew something needed to change. Instead of accepting where I was, I made the decision to take control of my health and become the strongest version of myself—both physically and mentally.


Strength training became much more than exercise. It became a way to rebuild my confidence, improve my energy, clear my mind, and manage everyday stress. Today, in my mid-40s, while raising two active teenage daughters, I continue to find balance through movement. Fitness reminds me to slow down, stay present, and invest in myself so I can show up better for my family and my clients.

In May 2022, I turned that passion into a business by founding 650 Fitness LLC. The name represents my personal philosophy:

8-Session Package

$70 per session

Our 30-minute sessions provide concentrated, efficient coaching for clients with limited time. Every workout focuses on clearly defined objectives, helping you develop strength, improve movement, and stay consistent without requiring a longer appointment.

6 Reasons. 5 Goals. 0 Excuses.

Those words are more than a slogan—they are a reminder that when motivation fades, your reason for starting is what keeps you moving forward. Every client has their own story, their own obstacles, and their own goals. My mission is to help you discover the strength and confidence to achieve them, regardless of where you're starting.


At 650 Fitness in Pacifica, California, I believe every workout should have a purpose. No two people are exactly alike, so no two training programs should be either. Whether your goal is weight loss, building strength, improving mobility, recovering after pregnancy, increasing athletic performance, or simply feeling healthier, I create personalized programs designed around your body, your schedule, and your lifestyle.


My coaching combines evidence-based strength training with accountability, encouragement, and practical lifestyle guidance. I strive to create a welcoming environment where clients of all ages and fitness levels feel supported, challenged, and empowered to succeed.

    More Than Fitness

    My goal has never been to create perfect bodies—it is to help people build stronger, healthier lives. I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel to start over, overcome setbacks, or make time for yourself. That's why I focus on creating realistic, sustainable habits that lead to lasting results.

    Whether you're stepping into a gym for the first time, returning after years away, or looking to reach the next level of your fitness journey, I'm here to help you move with confidence and discover what you're truly capable of.


    When you feel like quitting, remember why you started.
