Why Should You Trust Us?

When it comes to your health, fitness, and performance, I believe trust should be earned — not assumed. That’s why I’ve built Chrestay Wellness and Nutrition on a foundation of education, clinical experience, and real-world athletic training.

I am an NASM-certified personal trainer with hands-on experience coaching and training athletes at a professional level. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with individuals across the spectrum — from aspiring competitors to those simply looking to build sustainable, healthy lifestyles. My background allows me to bridge the gap between athletic performance, rehabilitation, and personalized wellness.

Alongside my coaching work, I am currently a fourth-year medical student in Chicago, with a graduation date set for June 2026. My future is dedicated to becoming a sports medicine physician, a career that perfectly blends my passion for movement, performance, and holistic health.

My journey isn’t just academic — it’s personal. I grew up immersed in athletics and played soccer at a semi-professional level, which instilled in me the discipline, resilience, and knowledge of what it takes to perform at your best. Over the years, I’ve also collaborated with professionals in personal training, physical therapy, and nutrition, learning from each field to build a well-rounded, evidence-based approach.

Whether your goals involve strength, recovery, performance, or long-term health, I aim to be your one-stop resource — offering guidance rooted in science, shaped by experience, and delivered with genuine care.
