Autumn went to college at Western Michigan University (Go Broncos!), where she received dual degrees in Exercise Science and Psychology.
She uses this blend to help clients develop physically, but also to unlock mental barriers. She was a college athlete and uses this same drive for the benefit of her clients.
Outside of the gym you will find her walking around Promenade Park or hitting up the Landing for some restaurant hopping. During the spring season you might also see her helping out with the New Haven High School softball team.
