Grace has always had a love for staying active, from growing up playing sports to discovering her passion for strength training and long-distance running. Her interest in fitness led her to pursue a degree in Kinesiology at the University of Maryland, where she continues to develop her understanding of the human body, movement, and the importance of physical activity.
Throughout her own fitness journey, Grace has learned that exercise is about so much more than physical strength. Whether it’s gaining confidence in the weight room, reaching a new running goal, or simply noticing progress over time, she has come to appreciate how rewarding it can be to challenge yourself and see what you’re capable of. Finding her own confidence and sense of belonging in the gym played a big role in inspiring her to become a personal trainer.
One of Grace’s favorite things about fitness is helping others realize that staying active and living a healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to feel like a chore. She believes movement should be something you learn to enjoy and look forward to, rather than something you feel obligated to do. As a trainer, she hopes to help others find that same sense of confidence and enjoyment that fitness has brought into her own life.
Grace understands that everyone’s fitness journey looks different, and her goal is to create a welcoming and encouraging environment where clients feel comfortable learning, trying new things, and working toward their goals. Whether you’re new to exercise, looking to build strength, or simply wanting to feel better in your everyday life, she wants to help you find ways to move that work for you and your lifestyle.
Outside of training, you’ll likely find Grace going for a run or walk, spending time with friends and family, playing basketball, or finding new ways to challenge herself and stay active!
