I am retired U.S. Air Force. I spent 23 years as a military police officer. I have deployed to some of the most dangerous places on earth and I accredit my success to my health, wellness, and fitness. Fitness is not just about the physical but mental as well. I like to take a holistic approach and personalize each session for my clients. I believe wellness should be individualized, just as if you were seeing a therapist for life's many trials and tribulations. Therefore, personal training should treated the same and tailored to the individual.

 I offer a free consultation where I will determine your training needs, discuss your goals, and give recommendations on macronutrients and diet. 

Please know that I am very empathetic and understanding if you are new to the gym. It can be confusing and intimidating for some. Thus, I offer a free gym orientation to ensure you are comfortable with the area, equipment, and culture. 

My favorite exercise

Any compound exercise. Core lifts, such as bench press, deadlift, squat, overhead press, pull-ups, weighted dips...

My favorite quote

Perfection is the enemy of good.

My training philosophy

You have to start somewhere.

My training experience

I have been exercising since I was able to curl a 5lbs dumbbell. My father taught me the importance of proper form, exercise, nutrition, and cardiovascular health. Since I was able to walk, I started playing soccer. Then, as I became older I added weight training. During my first deployment to Iraq in 2004, I increased my bench press from a one rep max of 185lbs to 300lbs in 7 months. Now, 21 years later, I am doing what I love.
