About Me

Hello! I'm Trisha.

I'm a Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor and Weight Loss Coach who spent most of my life nowhere near being any of those things and unsure of what I wanted to be when I grew up, long after I was a grown up.  At 35, after I'd lost 43 lbs and discovered a love of fitness at a community gym I decided to take the leap and get certified as a personal trainer and weight loss coach and it has proven to be one of the best decisions I've ever made.  Now I get to help people get healthier and happier every single day!

Before I found fitness and nutrition I had worked in bars and restaurants, doctors offices, a cleaning company, a retirement home, a drug store, on an assembly line and as administrative support in several different types of businesses, including an addiction and mental health facility where I got to provide a therapy dog.  I've had a lot of jobs figuring out what was right for me and for a long time it seemed like everyone around me had their lives figured out while I always felt like I was starting over but now I feel pretty grateful for all those experiences helping to get me to where I am.

A few things to know about me:

• I'm a bookworm with a collection of thousands of books
• I eat predominantly plant based and love to cook and try new recipes - I've also recently started making sourdough bread and am working my way through Artisan Bryan's cookbook (kind of obsessed)
• I live outside of Toronto, Ontario with my husband, Andrew, and our two dogs, Sprocket and Zoe (named for Muppets - because I LOVE The Muppets)
