I’ve dedicated the last decade of my life to fitness and nutrition because of how powerfully it changed my own story. I lost over 40 pounds, rebuilt my confidence, and discovered how movement and mindset can transform more than just a body—it can transform a life. That experience led me to become a certified trainer and nutritionist, and ultimately the co-founder of Visiting Wrld.

Visiting Wrld was born from my desire to create a space where LGBTQ+ individuals could feel safe, supported, and celebrated while improving their health. Fitness and travel can often feel intimidating or exclusive, and I wanted to redefine that by blending them into one inclusive, life-changing experience.

What drives me every day is seeing people leave our retreats stronger, happier, and more confident than when they arrived. I’m motivated by community—by the friendships formed, the stories shared, and the joy of helping others believe in themselves again. This isn’t just a business to me; it’s a mission to make wellness accessible and empowering for everyone, no matter where they come from.
