A B O U T
At Built by Mak, the goal is simple - to help people feel strong, confident and in control of their bodies through every stage of life.
With a foundation in Exercise and Sports Science and qualifications in personal training, women’s health, pre- and post-natal fitness, hormonal health and injury prevention, Built by Mak combines science and empathy to create programs that fit real life.
Whether it’s rebuilding strength after injury, navigating hormonal changes or chasing athletic goals, my approach is rooted in education, support, and sustainability - not quick fixes. Each program is designed to meet you where you’re at and guide you toward lasting confidence, resilience, and strength inside and out.
Built by Mak is more than a coaching service, it’s a community built on genuine connection, growth and empowerment.
My Background
Education
I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise and Sports Science, where I developed a strong foundation in biomechanics, physiology, anatomy and exercise prescription. This academic background gave me a deep understanding of how the human body moves and adapts - knowledge I now apply every day to help clients train smarter, recover faster and move with confidence.
Certificates
I’m a qualified Personal Trainer with Certificate III & IV in Fitness, an Accredited Exercise Scientist and hold additional certifications in:
-
Women’s Health & Hormonal Coaching
-
Pre- and Post-Natal Exercise Prescription
-
Peri- and Menopause Training
-
Injury Prevention & Rehabilitation
-
Strength & Conditioning Fundamentals
These credentials allow me to create safe, effective and personalised programs for women and people at every stage - from rebuilding post-birth to managing hormonal changes or returning from injury.
Specialisation
My approach blends sports performance training with health and functional strength coaching. As an Accredited Exercise Scientist, I specialise in athletic development, movement efficiency and evidence-based rehabilitation, helping athletes and everyday clients build strength, power and resilience.
Beyond performance, I’m passionate about empowering women through every life stage - supporting hormonal balance, confidence and long-term health through sustainable training and education.
Who I Help
I work with women, people and athletes of all backgrounds who want to move better, feel stronger and build long-term confidence in their bodies. Whether you’re returning from injury, navigating hormonal changes or looking to improve athletic performance, I’m here to help you train with purpose - not pressure. My clients range from everyday gym-goers to competitive athletes, all united by one goal: becoming their strongest, most resilient selves.
How I Do It
I combine science-backed programming with a holistic, personalised approach. Every session is built around your unique goals, lifestyle and movement patterns - not a one-size-fits-all plan.
As an Accredited Exercise Scientist and Personal Trainer, I focus on evidence-based training, progressive overload and functional movement patterns to help you perform better, reduce pain and move with confidence both in and out of the gym.
What's in It for You
You’ll gain more than just physical results - you’ll build a stronger mindset, better body awareness and a deeper connection to your health. My goal is to educate, empower and support you so that you understand why you’re training the way you are and can carry that confidence into every part of your life.
With Built by Mak, you’ll feel guided, supported and genuinely seen every step of the way.
