I have been training individuals, groups, teams for the last 6 years. I am very passionate about fitness and nutrition because I know they enhance every aspect in peoples lives. I studied exercise science in college and am NASM certified as well as certified as a nutrition coach through Precision Nutrition. I have helped hundreds of individuals accomplish their fitness goals, whether it be weight loss, mass gain, athletic training, marathon prep etc...and in my experience, the workouts are important, but my focus is nutrition.
I am a huge advocate of healthy eating. We literally are what we eat. If we eat healthy foods, we feel and look healthy. The opposite is also true. Nutrition is 90% of the battle. I teach my clients to work on habits that will help them to make changes that will last. I am a strong believer that anything worth getting is worth fighting for. It takes hard work. and determination.
I am also a huge advocate of mental health. I love seeing the physical transformation that takes place in someone, but the internal change is even more of a grand experience to witness. I have been involved with sports and working out my whole life, but I struggled with depression, negative self talk, and other weaknesses that come with mental illness. I missed out on college sports scholarships, maybe even a professional career, simply because I allowed depression to hold me back.
In all my experience as a trainer, it kills me to see someone that hates his/herself simply because of his/her physical appearance. Everyone has value! Everyone has greatness! I am humbled to have been able to witness and be a part in people's shift to love and belief in themselves. I am simply here to help and encourage my clients, and even direct them to proper resources if necessary.

My favorite roles are husband and father. I have been married to my beautiful wife, Jessica, for over seven years and we have two awesome boys that I can't get enough of. I also serve in the U.S. Air Force Reserves because I love our country. In my free time, I love the outdoors, reading, learning, and watching movies. I love being with my family.
