I was a former collegiate football player who received a Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science. From there, I became a Certified Personal Trainer and started my own business. I came into contact with an IFBB Pro Bodybuilder who gave me employment opportunity. He introduced me to the bodybuilding world and I have been competing ever since.

In order to keep my life structured, have great physical, mental, and spiritual health, I need exercise and competition in my life. I played sports since I was young, and this sport gave me a purpose again after sports were lost over the years.
