I’ve been working as a Health & Fitness Coach since 2008 in award winning One Spa at Sheraton Hotel in Edinburgh and currently alongside my Edinburgh City Center MB FUSiON STUDIO also working as a Health & Fitness Coach at David Lloyd Club in Edinburgh, Newhaven Harbour.  

In my free time, I enjoy all sport activities from hiking, mountain biking, snowboarding or playing hockey.
