Emma Thompson

Emma's journey into the world of home fitness began over a decade ago when she was working long hours as a software engineer and struggling to find time for the gym.

After transforming her spare bedroom into a home gym, she discovered not only the convenience but also the challenge of finding reliable information about home fitness equipment.

"I spent thousands of dollars on equipment that didn't meet my needs before I finally found the right setup," Emma recalls. "I started HomeGearReviews to help others avoid the same costly mistakes."

With a background in technology and a passion for fitness, Emma combined her expertise to create a platform that leverages AI to gather and analyze thousands of user experiences, creating the most comprehensive and honest equipment reviews available online.

Today, Emma continues to test equipment personally while leading a team of fitness enthusiasts who share her mission of helping people build effective home gyms without the guesswork.
