I recently graduated with a degree in Kinesiology from Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo in 2020 and I’ve been working in the health/fitness industry for about 10 years now. Currently I work part-time as a Personal Trainer and Swim Coach. When I’m not working I’m busy chasing my 5 year old around. We enjoy walks with the dogs, school, going to the park, play-dates, reading the Little Blue Truck series, and spending time with family. Additionally, I’ve worked as a caregiver in the past at an assisted living facility and personally with my mom who had Pancreatic cancer. As a trainer, I work with a wide range of clientele. I work with the following demographics: geriatric, individuals with disabilities/special needs, and athletes. I enjoy helping people and assisting them with their daily needs and activities.

Frances was great! My daughter was very comfortable with Frances. She had a great time playing games for 4+ hours. Will definitely try to hire Frances the next time we are in Paso.
