This is my second year as a Physical Education teacher at Umoja International Academy. I first discovered my passion for health and fitness while studying Nutrition at UC Davis, and later continued my education at Sacramento State, where I worked as a fitness trainer. My experiences eventually led me into fitness and nutrition coaching, where I enjoyed helping youth build healthier lifestyles.
I’ve had the opportunity to work with students ranging from transitional kindergarten to high school, and I truly enjoy supporting young people in their growth. I am especially passionate about fitness and weightlifting, and I bring experience from participating in a variety of sports, including football, rugby, wrestling, swimming, and diving.
Outside of teaching and fitness, I enjoy art, particularly drawing, which has been a lifelong hobby of mine. I look forward to continuing to share my passion for health, movement, and creativity with the students and families here at Umoja.
