My love of bodybuilding started by my fascination of comic book characters. Their muscular development was incredible so when I picked up my first bodybuilding magazine at age 15, I was instantly drawn to bodybuilding. I had always been athletic as a kid and teen but once I got into my early-20's, a competitive bodybuilder is what I wanted to be.

I love the fact that I was and am able to change the anatomy of my body by working out and eating right. Bodybuilding has also allowed me to inspire others to adopt a healthy lifestyle and that is more important than the vanity aspects of what it offers.
