Em has been featured in several podcasts, blogs as well as a sponsored athlete by brands Gymshark and MyProtein. He also appeared on the CBC original TV Show “Canada’s Ultimate Challenge”. Imagine being the only AFAB (Assigned female at birth) student to sign up for elective weight training class? Intimidating, right?
Now, imagine this: You are AFAB in the midst of your transition, with no one really to help with getting your body to be yours. You’ve conquered the path of finding your true self - but now your challenge is FEELING yourself. I was in that same situation and is the core reason why I do what I do. To help you get to a place of “This.. This is ME”. And, being proud of it. Hey, I’m em. ♡
I'm a certified personal trainer, nutritionist, entrepreneur, mentor, and fitness content creator dedicated to empowering the queer community, especially those who are trans, to embrace their authentic selves and build the bodies they envision. As a non-binary transmasc person using he/they pronouns, I embarked on my fitness journey in high school, where my passion for weight-lifting and defying societal expectations took root. Driven by this passion, I pursued a degree in Applied Human Nutrition, all the while working as a personal trainer.
While helping others transform themselves, I realized the need to create a more inclusive space for my community. Thus, I founded NRG Fitness on Instagram, where I've connected with and supported countless individuals like me. It's been an incredible journey, navigating both my personal transition and the growth of NRG. From sponsored partnerships to TV appearances, my goal remains the same: to uplift and guide others, sharing the strength and resilience I've gained through embracing my authentic self. Let's embark on this journey together and watch you flourish.
