I am a scientist and entrepreneur whose goal is to help address preventable disease. I completed my PhD and Fellowship in diabetes and metabolism where I examined how diet and exercise can affect the initiation and progression of disease. My entrepreneurial career has been focused on building businesses in the nutrition, fitness, and wellness industries from initiation to scale. I have also worked alongside NASM as a key contributor to their certifications, including the NASM-CNC, NASM-WLS, NASM-CSNC, NASM-VCS, NASM-PBC, and NASM-CWC and am presently serving on the NASM Scientific Advisory Board.
