About Me

I lost 60 pounds with the nutritional guidance and kettlebell training of my co-founder, Alysia Gadson. Inspired by my success and her training style, we made a kettlebell training DVD together for women called Ultimate Kettlebell. I wanted to help others and try a unique approach to the obesity epidemic, which formed my vision for LiveFit Revolution: a program that takes money out of the equation and focuses on helping individuals get results. I am responsible for video production, logistics, website development and maintenance, member services, and the day-to-day operations of LiveFit Revolution. I am also currently writing a book about my experiences with obesity and the traps of the weight-loss industry.

More About Me

I'm passionate about

Marginalizing the money-hungry weight-loss industry by empowering individuals to take control of their health.

An idea worth spreading

For the 100 million Americans that are overweight: stop dieting. Stop wasting your money on fad gimmick devices. Stop looking for a miracle (because there isn't one). Start making healthy lifestyle changes. Losing weight is simple when you break it down...and you don't need a superfood or a celebrity endorsement to do it. There is a community of people out there ready to give you everything you need to get amazing results. Keep your money...give your commitment and you will start to see that you are capable of more than you realize.
