About me

I am a medical assistant by first profession. I have been working for a cancer center for most of my life although now I have changed jobs as a fitness trainer. I love life, I love helping people out, My main goal in life is to continue to inspire people to lose weight, to get fit and to be ore inspired by cancer patients.

I obtained a diploma as a medical assistant at Kaplan College; basically assisting doctors in their daily job routines like physical examinations, performing diagnostic tests like EKG’s, Venipunctures, recording vital signs of patients and also in preparation of examining rooms and laboratories where patients are treated.

I worked for San Joaquin Community Hospital Cancer Center for 5 years and I found it really fulfilling as I assisted the doctors there in treating different cancer patients. I really love talking to the patients while they undergo their therapies. 

I got to know a certain patient, Miss Maya. She was 16 years old and she was diagnosed with Leukemia. She struggled for a year and went in and out of the hospital. We used to have long chats about her life, how she loved to read romance novels, go to the beach and just enjoy her remaining time here on earth. We lost her last 2007 and I was really depressed because I lost a true friend.I decided to move on to other lighter work and was blessed to have found a job as a Fitness trainer at  In Shape Health Clubs. I still interact with people; I have a set of programs especially suited to your weight training preference. Our complete work-out equipment makes us one of the best gyms here in Bakersfield.

I take pride with my personal workout program. Many people whom I have trained have thanked me for a better figure, better health, and better outlook in life. You can check us out anytime and contact me if you have any concerns or preference training you would like to work on. 

As I have a little background in the medical field, I am also concerned with your health and well-being. My methods are rather scientific but combined with modern techniques and fun, we can have great training together!

Fitness and Love

I loved to run before, especially on road runs all by myself. My PR has been consistent as I love to beat myself with a new record every time. Oh well, I guess it takes all the stress off. I met my boyfriend in the gym; he was one of my clients. He works at an IT company. We love running together every weekend and I can see us heading down the aisle sooner or later.

My family

My family is very Catholic and regularly goes to church every Sunday. My younger sister loves reading romance novels like Miss Maya, who I still think about until now.

I devote my time to my job, my family and my sister. I continue to visit the cancer center once in a while with my boyfriend, although I still break down in tears remembering Maya.
