Hi, I’m Briana!

I’m an Exercise and Sport Scientist, currently studying my Master’s in Exercise Physiology. I’ve recently joined the Riverside Bodyscan team as a DEXA Technician with a big passion for helping people take control of their health.

My love for health and fitness started on my own journey years ago. I was lucky enough to cross paths with a practitioner who supported and believed in me at a time I felt really unsure. That experience had such a positive impact on my life, and I knew then that I wanted to be that person for others.

Now, as a DEXA Technician, I get to combine my scientific background with real, measurable insights to help people better understand their bodies. Whether you’re chasing performance goals, managing a health condition, or just curious about your body composition, I love being part of that process and helping take the guesswork out of your journey.

Here’s a little more about me:

What inspired you to work in health and fitness?

My own journey! I crossed paths with a practitioner in the industry who not only guided me but genuinely made me feel seen, supported, and capable at a time I really needed it. This was a pivotal experience and sparked my drive to become that person for others. I know what it is like to feel unsure of where to start and how powerful the right support can be.

What do you get up to when you’re not working or studying?

You’ll usually find me walking by the beach getting my steps in, spending time with friends and family, or at a live concert! I’ve always believed life is about balance – between hard work and downtime, fitness and recovery.

What’s one thing people are surprised to learn about you?

People are often surprised to learn that I’ve been a vegetarian for the past eight years! And yes – I still get asked where I get my protein from…

I know how overwhelming health and fitness can feel when you’re not sure where to start. That’s why I’m here — to provide evidence-based support, meet you where you’re at, and help you move forward with confidence. I’m so excited to be part of a team that shares that same mission!
