Bio

Wellness Philosophy: Wellness to me is about finding a healthy balance in all aspects of life. Exercise has had a tremendous positive impact on my mental health and I truly believe any form of exercise can increase everyone's physical and mental well-being. My goal as a personal trainer is to help you find movement that you enjoy and that makes you feel good! 

 

Background: Hello! My name is Emily and I am an undergrad student here at UC Davis. Growing up I participated in many sports including basketball, tennis, volleyball, gymnastics, and I was also a competitive dancer. I started my weightlifting journey my sophomore year of high school when my small town opened up a new gym and I decided to give it a try. I quickly fell in love with how the gym made me feel physically and mentally and working out is still my favorite part of the day. As a personal trainer, I strive to share that same joy with others while in the gym!
