About
When you work with me, you’re partnering with an experienced, knowledgeable, and dedicated professional who cares about your goals as much as you do. I’ve worked with hundreds of clients and have even taught other fitness professionals in both college and corporate settings.
I hold a BS in Exercise Science and an MA focused on Health and Behavior Change. I specialize in corrective exercise and assisted stretching to help you move better, overcome limitations, and prevent injuries.
I’m not a bodybuilding trainer—I’m a full-time professional and parent of two who understands what it takes to balance real life and still thrive. I offer fitness and wellness consultation, coaching, problem-solving, and personalized fitness programs for people who want strong guidance plus the flexibility to work independently.
I work virtually and in person in the North West Columbus to Marysville, OH area, with morning, some evening, and weekend availability. My prices are monthly with lots of follow-up, guidance, and accountability to help you reach your goals.

I've trained with Mike for many years. As my goals change, Mike is very good at creating new plans to make me successful. Training for events, flexibility and adding muscle mass, for example. I've always been successful using his plans.

Mike was fantastic and easy to work with. He is very knowledgeable, cares about creating personalized workouts and makes the experience truly fun. He made me feel very comfortable despite being nervous at first. I was able to reach all my goals in the time he predicted I would and even got some confidence back that I hadn't had in a long time. I would absolytely recommend working with him. You won't regret it.
