“Working with Mary Duke, both in classes and one-on-one, has been a major factor in my recent push to get back in shape. I’ve become more and more impressed by her knack for working with clients according to their abilities. Every session with her is inspiring and challenging, and she has an honest love of her work that you can’t help but share by the time she’s done with you. I count her among the great teachers I’ve known.”
My goal is to help you find a path to fitness that is enjoyable, effective, meaningful and sustainable.
I am certified as a personal trainer by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and have been working full time in the field since 2008. I hold a Masters degree in Social Work from the University of Maryland and a B.A. in Psychology from Wesleyan University. Prior to making the transition to a career in fitness, I worked as a counselor, health educator and adventure based learning facilitator.
