Hi there! I’m Michelle, and I’m so glad that you’re here!

I may be a pediatrician, but I'm really passionate about helping busy professionals to prioritize their well-being through running and fitness. I love to develop customized training plans for every type of runner, especially beginners.

I found running in my early 30s, and it has truly changed my life since then. I remember what it was like to feel discouraged and stuck when I started out. Fast forward across some amazing finish lines, and now I get to share my love and knowledge of the sport through coaching!

I started Mindful Marathon to help others improve their lives by embracing running and exercise. I’m all about celebrating our current fitness, wherever that happens to be, and I’m a big believer in the idea that every runner starts from somewhere, even if that somewhere is mile 0.
