I was looking for a training method that was more cardio and endurance based in order to help push my
military PT score to a 300. I needed something quick that would pair well with a traditional strength
building program. Once I tried it, I was hooked and everything took off from there. Don’t even get me
started on competitions!
Why did you become a trainer?
I’ve always enjoyed bringing out the best in people. I take more pride in an athlete’s success story than I
do from my own triumphs. I want to help people live an overall healthier lifestyle so they can share it
with their family and friends. I believe in a holistic approach to health and, as a veteran, I’ve seen too
many individuals rely on medication, when so many ailments can be corrected with a lifestyle change.
What’s your favorite movement in CrossFit?
I’ve really come to love any gymnastics movement; pullups, muscle-ups, handstand walks, etc. I’ve
caught the itch to want to try Ninja Warrior!
What is your favorite cheat food?
Anything with donuts!!!!
What’s your favorite Superhero and why?
Green Arrow. He’s not endowed with any magical powers, but can still kick plenty of ass. Plus the bow
and arrow deal is pretty cool. I dig the vigilante Robin Hood style about him.
