ABOUT:
Death Valley, CA Inspiring individuals to pursue greatness one person at a time... As a native New Yorker born to Puerto Rican/Spanish and Cuban parents, I learned early how to be a proud 'foodie'. My mom is a phenomenal cook and my dad could turn out, from an empty fridge, a 4 star- 3 course meal. As for many people, food was a thing of comfort for me. Being the youngest of four children and having a 6 year difference with my sister who was nearest in age to me, I did not have a playmate at home, so I stayed in the kitchen helping mom and eating butter for kicks. Yes... whole sticks of butter! As I got older I kicked the butter habit but my teens were an awkward time. Like many little girls I aspired to be a graceful dancer, but in dance class I felt like the ugly ducking amongst swans. Looks mean a lot when it comes to getting a booking in the business and weight was and still is very important to the entertainment industry. After high school I entered Cornell University and experienced the 'Freshman 15'. Actually, I gained 10 pounds my first year--which I attributed to the mid-night runs to Robert Purcell Union (a.k.a. RPU to alums), where the cookies would melt and disappear in your mouth, so taking 4 each visit was a necessity as to not forget how absolutely yummy they were.
I
realized how being
unfit made me unhappy and a below average student. The depression
affected my confidence and ability to do well in school. I knew I
focused and worked hard to get into a good university, and so I knew
I had the ability to focus and work hard on being happy with myself.
I made a decision to take control. I quickly realized my affinity
for health, sports and overall fitness while in college. I began to
dance and perform again at school and got off the school's meal
plan. I took a job at Ithaca Fitness, the local gym, and became
active with the university's athletic department by doing college
work study as an Athletic Team Trainer's Assistant. Hence, my
mantra... choose focus, fit and free! Years later I
found myself in Germany working towards a Master's degree and
working for a fitness center located in Rastatt, Germany. I never
lost control again and never looked back. |

The
Face Forward Method®
is something I developed over years and it
works! I have clients from 17 to 68 years of age who have seen
incredible results. What makes it work for so many is that it is not
a hit the gym and count your calories method, instead it is a
process of doing practical movement with weights and conditioning
one's body to prepare for personal training. I use a combination of
body conditioning, strength training, power training, pilates and
various cardio routines to obtain the best results possible. When
combining that training style with the 3-Level meal plan, not only
does one drop the weight but the lessons learned on foods and
substitutions and how to maintain your weight for life is priceless.
It truly is a method which educates, teaches control, discipline,
and introduces a lifestyle change that you will be willing to take
on once you see how empowering it can be to take control of your
health.
