Aurora’s BIO.
She/Her/Hers
I strive to empower individuals with a sense of awareness and resilience to revolutionize their journey to health while attaining their specific goals. My approach is to work together with you to elicit a greater mind-body connection, strengthen your foundation, and develop your power to level up how you feel and perform. In a continually evolving fitness industry, I am committed to establish a modern educational program around holistic wellness, functional exercise, and sustainable nutrition to guide you in taking control of your health.
I grew up in an active and health conscious Midwest household, where sports played an integral role in developing my fascination for what our bodies and minds are capable of. I prioritized this passion by going to Marquette University and earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Physiology. During my college experience, I mentored young kids in fitness programs as well as manage the Track & Field team to motivate and spread the wealth of movement. I have since applied my knowledge of biomechanics and the physiological effects of intentional movement and mindful nutrition to empower those looking to transform their fitness.
I became more and more motivated to immerse myself into fitness culture, drawing me to DIAKADI. I worked as an intern to learn the nuances and intricacies of the fitness business in San Francisco and received my personal training certification in 2017. The revolutionary wellness culture with the best of the best trainers motivated me to conquer my own health by experimenting with different training modalities and nutrition routines. I found my passions in Olympic style lifting, Kettlebell training, strength training, tennis specific conditioning, and a sustainable, nutrient dense diet.

TESTIMONIALS.
Level headed, emotionally intelligent, and extremely well connected to her clients - the best way to describe Aurora, although probably not what you’d expect to hear about a personal trainer (but she’s so much more than that!). These are also the reasons I went from seeing her twice per week for strength and conditioning training, to three times per week, to then adding tennis in once per week too. At the gym, she is excellent at mirroring her energy to mine. We have quiet workouts and we have chatty sessions, she goes with the flow, all while delivering fun, new, and challenging ways to get fit. Tennis is the same - a perfect balance of drills and just hitting the ball together, she is a true pro. Aurora will offer up all kinds of advice in addition to her training - nutrition, sleep and recovery, and where to find the best produce in town. Never thought I could be so pleased with a trainer, but Aurora has motivated me and gotten me in the best shape of my life, and she’s become a great friend as well. If you need more encouragement to work with her or have any questions, call me, she will give you my number.

Aurora is the friggin' best. She's super hands-on and focused in all of our sessions, super attentive to my personal fitness goals, and great at both pushing me to go harder and push my limits or dial things back. I love how she brings her knowledge of physiology and massage to break out of our scheduled routine and "problem solve" whatever is going on in my body that day. It's obvious that she loves training, and I recommend her 100%!

I’ve been training with Aurora for over 6 months. During these months, Aurora has given me workouts that have truly supported my goals of becoming faster and agile at tennis. In addition to being faster and agile, I’ve become incredibly strong due to lifting workouts. She’s done an incredible job of shifting my workouts due to my changing goals over the last few months and I couldn't recommend her more if you’re looking to gain strength and agility.
