Margaret’s professional journey began in collegiate athletics, where she earned a full-ride scholarship and played volleyball and softball at the Division I level. Inspired by her own coaches, she pursued a Master’s degree in Education with a focus on health and sports performance while serving as a graduate assistant and assistant coach at Xavier University. She went on to coach at multiple colleges across the Midwest before transitioning into the fitness industry.

Beyond her professional life, Margaret is passionate about the outdoors, enjoying golf, pickleball, hiking, biking, and gardening. She emphasizes the importance of leisure and joy in life, encouraging her clients to slow down, connect with nature, and cultivate balance alongside physical health.
