All About Haylee
What inspired to become a personal trainer?
I figure skated as a kid and we had a personal trainer, since I was 12 years old I knew I wanted to be a trainer just like him.
What is your favorite thing about being a personal trainer/fitness instructor?
The look on my clients faces when they reach a new goal or have fun with a workout.
What is your favorite fitness class to teach?
Bootcamp or kickboxing
Do you have an easy healthy recipe snack to recommend for college students to make?
Overnight oats! I eat this for either pre/post workout or dessert for everyday!
Rolled oats, plain greek yogurt, ground cinnamon, protein powder, and frozen mixed berries! I mix up the fruit and toppings so it’s never boring and super quick to make, just let it sit in the fridge for at least 1 hour and you’re good to go.
What is your favorite part about being president of the Student Nutrition Association (SNA)?
Definitely the connections that I have made with all of my professors, other students, and community members while working with SNA. Being president has opened my eyes to all of the opportunities in nutrition and made me love it even more. I look forward to all of our events this year especially our event with HerCampus – Give Breast Cancer the Boot(camp) fundraiser workout on Tuesday November 29th at 8pm. (Be there or be square!!)
