In 2015 I signed up for my first Spartan Race, the 4-mile Sprint. Through that, I realized that I can accomplish whatever it is that I set my mind to. Thus began my fitness journey. 

As I continued to compete in various OCRs, I quickly recognized the fact that in order to compete on the next level, I must focus on strength and endurance training. After a quick google search and without even knowing what Fitness was, I signed up for my first Fitness class in 2016. I was hooked.

The camaraderie and positive atmosphere both from coaches and fellow athletes is what I most appreciate about the Fitness community; the workouts also, as they cover the entire spectrum of cardio and strength.

I am passionate about becoming the best version of one’s self, and inspiring others to do likewise. I obtained my L1 coaching certification in 2020 and am currently taking various other Fitness courses to improve my effectiveness as a coach.

Outside the gym I am dad to 5 fine kids and husband to an incredible woman. I am part-owner at Martin’s Powder Coating and live on an Old-McDonald farm where there’s never a dull moment. My next goal is to complete the 30-mile Spartan Ultra.
