A short story About me :-)
I have been an active person through out my live. From early childhood I have devoted most of my time to athletics. I competed at many international competitions including IAAF World Athletic Championship.
I've been working as a Health & Fitness Coach since 2008 in award winning One Spa at Sheraton Hotel in Edinburgh and currently alongside my Edinburgh City Center MB FUSiON STUDIO also working as a Health & Fitness Coach at David Lloyd Club in Edinburgh, Newhaven Harbour.
In my free time, I enjoy all sport activities from hiking, mountain biking, snowboarding or playing hockey.
