I am sophomore here at Butler University serving as a trainer at the HRC and studying exercise science. Over the past couple of years, fitness has become a huge part of my life. I know building a foundation for a healthy lifestyle is an ongoing process and I am continuously seeking new information. I am here to provide resources and advice at your disposal and I look foward to connecting with those who share a similar passion!
