At a young age I've always invested my time in to being physical and mental health, and that still continues to this day. I played soccer and basketball growing up, although I tried to dive head first into any sort of physical activity that was presented to me. Eventually I joined a semi pro basketball team back in my home town in Italy. Everything was going great, and then I suffered a shoulder dislocation my senior year of high school. Sad about having to miss the rest of the basketball season, I really start to think about being involved in the health and fitness environment, and especially after my experience with Physical Therapy I knew I wanted to work with not only Athletes and their health. Going into college I came in as an Athletic Trainer, but soon realized that injured athletes weren't the only population I was trying to work with. Then I found Kinesiology, which was exactly what I was looking for. My passion for the mind body connection and for health longevity took me down the road I am on now, and looking back on it, if I wouldn't have gotten injured and had to give up organizational basketball then I wouldn't be here. I am grateful for all of my experiences, and am truly excited to share my stories and passion with everybody!
