Her side hobbies involve tax preparation, stock investing, real estate/rental consulting, financial advisory consulting and currently pursuing acting and fitness modeling. As Emma has always been involved in some form of fitness activity since her early teenage years and in helping others achieve a fit lifestyle; she has put her experiences to practice. In order to make her natural talents legit, she went on to earn her Fitness Trainer Certification along with specialty areas in Performance Nutrition, Fitness Therapy, Adaptive Fitness, Endurance Fitness, Water Fitness, Youth Fitness, Martial Arts Conditioning and Sports Conditioning. She is also CPR/AED certified. This lady has had her share of weight struggles and yo-yo dieting that haunts us all. This mother's fitness experiences and natural talents that expand over three decades have earned her the respect of many celebrities, film directors, athletes, fitness models and fellow elite fitness ethusiasts. She is no doubt one of America's Fittest Moms over Forty. This fitness guru's genuine concern to help all people achieve their fitness goals is displayed by her compassionate but yet business-like etiquette. This woman is not only beautiful on the outside but has a great sincere beauty inside that comes from what she calls "self-respect". She says, "It is oneself that determines our self-worth. As we believe in ourselves, we can begin to dream and succeed in the light that God instills in us." Furthermore, she has been involved in various cardiovascular/endurance competitions in some of the local gyms in Chicago. When you spot Emma at the gym, you'll know this lady is passionate, dedicated and focused on her training. You just may find her spontaneously challenging herself by running a marathon on the treadmill. She indicates it requires extra mental focus and dedication to run in an indoor environment due to no real scenery and changing effects that you find in an outdoor setting. She's either working on weight-training and properly dieting to maintain a tight fit physique or building endurance for a marathon. In addition, as a child and young teenager, Emma performed in dance and theatre productions. As she became a young mother, Emma persevered to earn her B.S. in Computer Science at DePaul University and Masters Certification in the technological arena. As having been a single parent most of the time, her computer profession has been the primary way to financially support herself and daughter. Now that her daughter is grown and her computer career has hit its pinnacle, Emma can focus and spend more time on her other passions – fitness and the performing arts. She currently resides in a western suburb of Chicago, Illinois. |
