Hi, I’m Becks!

Growing up in Connecticut, I played sports and fell in love with being active. I knew I wanted to dedicate my career to helping others.

After graduating from Western CT State University with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, I spent several years working in the Intensive Care Unit in Hartford, CT, before I took my first travel nursing assignment in California. Like so many others, I struggled to balance my long hospital shifts with my own health goals. I made a promise to myself to prioritize my wellness, so I created an Instagram account to stay accountable.

In 2014, I moved to Southern California, where I found a new fitness family at a local gym.

My friends inspired me to run my first marathon in 2016, and I ran three more that year. I felt called to share my passion for fitness, so I became a NASM certified personal trainer in 2017.

The following year, I left my job as an ICU nurse to pursue personal training full time.

During that time, I lost my father and was in a toxic relationship. Then, the pandemic hit and everything changed. I returned to the ICU, where I could have a profound impact. Those years were the hardest of my life, but they taught me that I am strong, courageous, and truly capable of anything. I was ready for a new opportunity to touch people’s lives.

I hit the ground running, launching my Move With Strength Workout Guide for runners. I became a certified nutrition coach, and joined a coaching team where I worked with as many as 65 online fitness and nutrition clients at once.

Many of my clients were nurses, and that brought me back to my roots. In 2023, I launched my Move With Strength 1-on-1 coaching program for healthcare workers.
