I graduated college from the University of Iowa, majoring in exercise science with a minor in human relations. I became an ACE CPT in 2020 and am a PN Level 1 Certified Nutrition Coach.
My fitness journey really began once I quit soccer after high school- I knew I wanted to start lifting but didn’t really know where to start. With all the misinformation on nutrition and strength training, it was hard to know what was true.
Throughout college, I discovered that my passion was to help others gain the correct information to not only achieve long-lasting results, but to truly understand how to get there. I know the frustration of feeling out of sync with your body and would love to help you feel like yourself again through the proper nutrition and training.
Silas is a NASM certified personal trainer with more than 10 years of experience. A natural classic physique bodybuilding competitor and prep coach, Silas specializes in helping clients lose fat and build muscle safely and optimally using evidence based practices. Through co-founding a movement studio and having a background in athletics, Silas has experience with a variety of fitness modalities which he uses to help clients reach their goals in whatever way is best suited to their specific needs.
Currently studying to become a practicing psychotherapist, Silas naturally places a great deal of importance on unifying mental and physical health. His goal is always to ensure his clients feel well supported and empowered to take on any challenge both inside and outside of the gym.
When not in the gym, you can usually find Silas hitting baseballs for his dog Franco, in a coffee shop or on a tennis court around Nashville!
I received my NASM CPT in 2021 and have been personal training since then. I received my NASM Nutrition certification shortly after that and most recently have acquired my pre and post natal fitness certification. I am currently a registered nurse as well. I love working with clients looking to find a fitness and nutrition routine that’s sustainable for their lifestyle. I am a big believer that one size doesn’t fit all for training or nutrition and tailoring it to you, your lifestyle and your goals is the key to success.
Fun facts about me: I live downtown with my husband and our two dogs. I’m originally from Maryland so I thrive on seafood. I’m a huge bookworm and if I’m not at the gym, you can usually find me somewhere nose deep in a novel
