- About Me:
- In 2002, I launched MAC Fitness (Making-A-Commitment to Fitness) to educate, coach and motivate individuals who struggle with implementing healthier lifestyle habits. I'm skilled at creatively crafting solutions to help individuals overcome the physical, financial and emotional consequences of physical inactivity and poor nutritional habits.
I've worked as a certified personal trainer, both privately and for Bally’s Total Fitness, and I hold a personal trainer certification through the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America. Combining my fitness training and passion for healthy living with nearly twenty years of human resources and program development experience, I continuously deliver practical health and fitness solutions.
Understanding that the quest to incorporate a healthier lifestyle is often hampered by daily demands and obligations, I equip my clients with a collection of lifestyle tools that helps close the gap between understanding and doing what is right to reduce the risk of illness.
A motivational speaker and facilitator, I've traveled throughout the country delivering a message that empowers audiences to make positive lifestyle choices. Currently, I write a health column for L.I.V.E and Victorious Magazine, two lifestyle magazines that feature information and inspiration to enable readers to reach their God-given potential, and has also served as a fitness consultant for an Internet radio station and an online lifestyle management program.
I've been an avid runner for more than 10 years, participating in a host of 5K and 10K races and completing four marathons and two half-marathons. In an effort to share the benefits of a consistent running program, I've coached several group training programs to provide beginner walkers and runners weekly instruction for improving their fitness level.

Those who thought time had "flown by," rated their experiences as more fun.U.S.-Allied Sunni Groups Struggle Under Iraqi Control
The Sunni militias known as the Sons of Iraq, or Sahwa movement, were credited with helping to defeat al-Qaida in Iraq during the U.S. surge that began in 2007.

Dave Koenig has health insurance through work, and is happy with the plan. But as the health care debate drags on, he says he's losing faith in the overhaul plan. Koenig, who calls himself a conservative, says that at first he was open to President Obama's call to regulate the insurance industry to protect patients. But as lawmakers negotiate behind closed doors, and it's still unclear how much it will cost, Koenig is growing wary of the plan. And he's hoping his health insurance won't change when all is said and done.Eurostar To Resume Service Tuesday
Eurostar said it would resume its high-speed rail service linking Britain, France and Belgium on Tuesday after a three-day suspension that stranded tens of thousands of travelers. The traffic was suspended between Paris and London through the Channel tunnel as experts tried to discover what caused five trains to get stuck while attempting the passage on Friday.Health Care Bill Heads For Passage

How nice to see you on here. How are things going? I'm suppose to be in bed, because these late nights are holding me down, keeping me from being productive. I was just checking my page, and there you were. I'm sure we'll keep in touch one way or another. (winkin')
Welcome and thank you for the add/request. I hope you enjoy your time here. God bless you and much success.
