After graduating from the Paul School of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire, I spent a year teaching English in Tianjin, China.Upon my return I began working in the gym/ fitness industry to continue my love of teaching in a different capacity. I spent nearly a decade working for Iron Legion Strength Co., a small but mighty gym in Westbrook, ME, first as a personal trainer and recently as the general manager, helping to hire and onboard new coaches, expand to a second location, and managing new sales leads.I’ve now transitioned to a new role, still in a “teaching” capacity, working as a Maine SBDC Business Advisor for Androscoggin Valley Council of Governments in Auburn, assisting people pursuing their dreams of becoming a small business owner, and helping others grow their companies.
