ABOUT ME

Hey there! 

My name is Jimena (Jime for short) and I am a Behavior Change and Nutrition/Macro Coach! 

I grew up in Argentina and have been bilingual since I was 5 years old. I studied English for 10 years, then English-Spanish Certified Translation and later I specialized in medical translation, as well as nutrition, fitness, and weightlifting specialized translation and interpreting.

My passion for coaching started with my own health and fitness journey, when I realized that I needed a lifestyle change due to a chronic autoimmune disease. 

I found CrossFit in 2013 when I was 27, and not having played sports growing up, CrossFit ignited a new passion for all things health and fitness. I went from chronic dieter who was “not into sports” to gym goer, turned CrossFit enthusiast, turned competitive CrossFit athlete, turned lover of all forms of movement. 

After finding CrossFit, I took a leap and began studying nutrition (first on my own, then through specialized courses and certifications) and now working towards my degree as a Dietitian. 

I have been a nutrition coach for 7+ years and I have worked with hundreds of clients from all walks of life.

As a coach, I have worked with recreational and professional/Olympic level athletes from various sports (CrossFit, weightlifting, swimming, team sports and endurance). I focus on helping clients finding ways to foster healthy relationships with food through lasting and sustainable lifestyle adjustments. 

I have experience (both as a client and as a coach) with the mental roadblocks and setbacks that come from behavior change. Being able to work with my clients on those roadblocks, and developing a partnership that they can lean on while simultaneously having enough independence and support is hands down the best part of my job.
