"I have been with Fitness Pointe since it opened in November 1998 and have been in the fitness industry for 38 years. I oversee the Fitness Department.

Our staff at Fitness Pointe enjoys assisting members on their fitness journey. We have many resources available to our members, such as free fitness assessments, which include developing individualized programs for you; a wide variety of land and water group exercise classes, all of which are included in your membership; and one-on-one, or group, personal training services. We also have trained staff on our fitness floor ready to help and guide you with our wide variety of exercise equipment.

We know that you have fitness goals in mind. The mission for all of us at Fitness Pointe is to help you achieve those goals in a friendly, safe and encouraging environment."

"I started working at Fitness Pointe in 2008 at the Front Desk, then moved into Membership a couple of years later. I now serve as the Member Relations supervisor, overseeing the Front Desk and Membership. My goal in serving our members is to assure that everyone using the facility has a good experience from the start. I also make myself available to discuss any of our members’ comments or concerns. One of my main responsibilities is ensuring that our members’ draft payments run smoothly each month. I enjoy getting to know our members and staying connected with them."

I love helping to guide our clients toward a healthier and happier lifestyle!"
