Pain-Free Performance Specialist
Born in Suchitoto, El Salvador, Debbee came to the United States in 2009 and quickly learned the value of perseverance. From overcoming the challenges of her early years as an immigrant to becoming her high school’s Most Improved Athlete in 2013, she built a foundation of resilience that continues to define her today. Her dedication to track and field earned her multiple medals, and that same drive carried her through college, where she graduated with honors from the University of the District of Columbia and served as class president. For Debbee, fitness has always been more than exercise—it’s been the key to her growth and success. Strength training, in particular, has shaped her both inside and out, giving her the tools to push through challenges and celebrate achievements. This perspective is what makes her an empathetic and motivating coach—she understands firsthand what it takes to stay consistent and reach big goals. Outside the gym, Debbee loves running, hiking, biking, camping, and exploring new restaurants around town. She’s also a passionate entrepreneur, brand-builder, and proud cat mom to Charlie and Chaplin. Today, Debbee is the Co-Founder of STRNG Functional Fitness and a certified Pain-Free Performance Specialist (PPSC). She helps clients unlock their potential through customized functional strength training programs designed to build resilience, confidence, and lasting results.
