Kiara Smith – Fitness Enthusiast, Certified Personal Trainer, and Aspiring Pharmacy Technician
My name is Kiara Smith, and my lifelong passion for physical activity has shaped my journey in both fitness and professional development. Throughout high school, I immersed myself in a variety of sports, including volleyball, basketball, track and field, badminton, and fastball. My love for movement extends beyond organized sports; I enjoy wake surfing, swimming, biking, and taking long walks.
After graduating high school, I found myself searching for a meaningful way to stay active. In October 2022, I followed my sister to the gym and quickly discovered my passion for fitness. Within a week, I had my own membership, and the gym became my second home. Since then, I’ve maintained an unwavering commitment, rarely taking more than three days off. The supportive environment and community fueled my dedication and deepened my love for fitness.
In August 2024, I began pursuing a pharmacy technician course, juggling 11 classes in my first semester. Anticipating a quiet winter break, I stumbled upon the ISSA website while preparing for finals and decided to turn downtime into an opportunity. By the end of my break, I had completed certifications in Personal Training, Nutrition Coaching, Online Coaching, and Bodybuilding Specialization.
Looking ahead, I’m eager to complete my pharmacy technician program while dedicating my summer to expanding my personal training practice. Becoming a personal trainer has always been a dream of mine, and I’m thrilled to help others achieve their fitness goals through tailored guidance and support.
