Fitness is not just something I do it’s my passion and calling. I believe in putting God first, not only in my life but in how I help others. I am committed to guiding people as they strive to achieve their fitness goals while being intentional about my own health and spiritual growth. The gym is my sanctuary, but the outdoors is where my soul thrives. I love hiking, exploring nature, and finding inspiration in God’s creation.

 

Creativity is another piece of who I am. Whether through painting or simply enjoying the stillness of my alone time, I cherish moments of reflection and self-expression. But what truly drives me is people helping, supporting, and lifting others up through faith.

 

I am profoundly grateful for the opportunities this country has given me. My family is a source of strength and inspiration. My brother, a dedicated doctor, and my mother, Dorothy Johnson, the strongest woman I know, have both shown me what it means to live a life of purpose and service. Together, we remain committed to doing the work of the Lord, keeping His presence at the heart of everything we do".
