Always worked out in one form or another. Always athletic but undersized; my athleticism, agility and dedication was the key to my successes on and off the playing field... Grew up in the South Bronx and life was a struggle - but we all make the decision to persevere or to succumb to the element around us; Fitness was always a viable solution for me to release and get away from those struggles...

Bodybuilding offers me the vehicle to keep my visions of a healthy mind and body alive... it also allows me the avenue to meet and bond with my family, friends and even strangers that have like interests or have a desire to change their lives and get off the couch. I train alone for the most part, but I always encourage those around me to join in and experience the joy and pain of excersize and the wonderful benefits that are associated with it.
