Hi! I’m Ellen - helping moms before, during, and after pregnancy is my passion.

I’m a mechanical engineer, mom of 2, Central New Yorker, soccer player, book lover, and certified pregnancy & postpartum coach.

I know what it feels like to struggle with pelvic floor dysfunction and diastasis recti. I know how hard it can be to figure out how to exercise during pregnancy & postpartum. I know what it feels like to suffer the loss of a pregnancy. I know what it feels like to be a busy mom trying to juggle work, being a present parent, a loving wife, and fitting meaningful fitness in when I can. I know what it’s like to struggle with postpartum depression and anxiety.

I have taken everything I have learned from my own struggles & coursework/certifications and poured it into creating fitness programs designed to support & educate moms.
