I've been fairly athletic for a majority of my life. Martial arts since I was 5. Moved onto lacrosse in high school, which is when I discovered that 5'9" at 120 didn't quite stand up too well against some of the bigger guys. Both of my parents were active gym goers and my father is a fairly big guy (muscular big). So I began joining them at the gym and just kinda fell in love with the activity.

I love being physically active. From hitting the gym to tearing up the courses in OCRs to simply going for a walk in the early mornings, I love being active. I view it as a way to prove to myself that no matter what goes on it the world, I'm always in control of my actions and choices. And this passion for being healthy and physically fit has burrowed its way into my mindset for life. I love when I get the chance to meet people who have similar views or even those who are just about to start their fitness journey. I love giving any advice I possibly can and helping others along their way.
