I moved to south Florida from upstate New York 6 years ago. All I had was a tiny car and my dog didn’t really have a place to stay and barely had any money but I knew I could make something of myself down here as a personal trainer. I rented rooms from people and moved 6 times in 2 years as I studied to become a trainer. I started as a personal trainer for the YMCA and busted my butt working two jobs almost 80 hours a week until I built up enough clients and built up enough of a following to do personal training full time. Now I own a condo and a brand new truck all through hard work. It’s been a long crazy journey but I couldn’t be happier doing what I do for a living. I love helping people change there lives and motivating others to achieve goals they never thought possible.

I started Powerlifting when I was 14. I knew I loved it and wanted to do it as soon as I maxed out on bench press for the first time, I think I got like 180. I’ve grown over the years as a lifter and as an athlete & competitor. I’ve competed in 3 USA Powerlifting competitions and it’s like a drug for me. I’m currently at a 1462 Total. When I compete again I’m shooting for 1600, I’m always a much better competitor when I have a number in my head. My main goal right now is to aide in getting Powerlifting on ESPN on the regular. I feel that we deserve that and we just need that platform.
