My Why
I want to be a difference maker for others. At just 20 years old, I was living with chronic pain. I sought out treatment from multiple physiotherapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, acupuncturists, and so on, but nothing seemed to help long-term. I lost hope until I met a fitness professional who went above and beyond to help me.
Training with him helped me experience what it was like to live without pain--a pivotal point in my life that I never thought I would experience again after several years of struggle. Learning from him inspired me to change my career and pursue a passion in health & fitness. It was a long winding road through studying physical therapy, sports injuries, and eventually, strength & conditioning. I am a student and teacher of strength and I couldn't be happier to pursue this lifelong journey.
