For over 20 years, I worked as an IT Security Engineer, protecting complex digital systems from failure. But in 2024, I realized my true passion wasn't in fixing computers — it was in rebuilding people.
My journey into coaching began on the volleyball court. As a former player in Hong Kong and a volunteer youth coach here in the US, I fell in love with the mechanics of human movement. However, I knew that to truly help people — especially those dealing with age or medical conditions — I needed scientific expertise.
To build that foundation, I earned my Fitness Professional Certificate from Ohlone College and became a Certified Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM).
I then began working directly with seniors as a fitness instructor, which changed my perspective completely. I discovered that helping an older adult regain their balance or recovery is just as rewarding as coaching an athlete to a win.
Today, I combine my analytical background with the science of Kinesiology. I don't just 'exercise' you; I analyze your movement, identify the weak links, and build a system that keeps you safe, strong, and active.
