Bio

I’m a lifelong entrepreneur with over a decade of experience in fitness ownership and operations management. I’ve founded and built two successful businesses and helped launch and scale two others — including operating the top-performing location in a national franchise. My background in corporate management, team development, and systems design has given me a deep understanding of what it takes to build scalable, high-performing operations.

After relocating to Austin, I’m focused on launching Knockout Fitness — a purpose-driven studio designed to combine structure, community, and long-term sustainability. This project represents more than business for me; it’s a reflection of resilience, leadership, and the lessons learned along the way. My goal is to create a brand that helps people grow stronger in every way — physically, mentally, and within their community.
