Meet Our Team

I live in Lone Tree, Colorado and my business serves clients in the metro Denver area. In addition to operating a GYMGUYZ franchise, I am also NASM CPT – certified personal trainer, as well as wife to Mark Garey and mother to 3 wonderful children, Tyler – 23 years old, Amanda – 21 years old and Roger – 12 years old.

In my spare time I enjoy exploring different countries in the world, outdoor activities in the CO mountains, running, spending time with my family and friends and savoring Texas BBQ. Favorite Quote “The miracle is not that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.” - John Bingham (running expert) Fitness Background I enjoy running, swimming and biking – as well as competing in marathons and triathlons. My Mission I believe that people can accomplish so many wonderful things in their life with courage. Courage in setting and achieving goals is our mission for our GYMGUYZ clients.

Not only can exercise provide so many benefits to moms, but to our children as well through being a positive role model of a healthy lifestyle and courage in achieving goals.
