Who is Jessie Poku?

A Certified Personal Trainer from the Cooper Institute of Dallas. I have been training individuals to help them achieve their health and fitness goals for 7 years. In addition to my certification, I specialize in working with individuals with different abilities, ranging from autism, Down Syndrome, TBI, Cerebral Palsy to Athletes. Additionally, I have the experience and expertise to work with post-injury clients in helping them get back to baseline after injury.

I am a former pro-athlete, played football for Eastern New Mexico University, then went on to play IFL for Colorado Ice. I had the privilege to play on the Dallas Cowboys Practice team and participated in the NFL draft in 2011. The summit of my football career was my induction into the Hall of Fame at ENMU in 2019.

My passion for people and unique ability to motivate people to success coupled with my experience as an athlete, has helped me become a well sought after personal trainer in the DFW Metroplex. I am also married with one son and reside in Plano. In what little spare time I have, I love spending time with my family and friends, traveling, and keeping up my competitive A-game playing golf, pickleball and basketball.
