Bio
With over 15 years of experience, I have had the opportunity to work with some of the most amazing people ever. My diverse clientele includes seniors to young children, students, blue collar workers, executives, to professional and Olympic athletes.
I have worked with people that have been injured, people that have never exercised in their lives, and people of various fitness levels that just needed “something different”. That “difference” I provide comes from years of experience and the ability to relate to what people want and need.
I have designed and implemented different sport specific programs for such sports as tennis, golf, boxing, various equestrian sports, and adventure racing to name a few. I have also designed, implemented, and lead various fitness boot camps throughout the state of Florida. I have written health and fitness columns for various periodicals and websites. I have trained people in many environments with a variety of equipment such as weight machines (Nautilus, Cybex), free weights, medicine/exercise balls, Isokinetic equipment (Cybex, Biodex), cords/bands, and calisthenics (no equipment), to using backpacks and sand bags!!
I have trained people in gymnasiums, fitness centers, on soccer fields, on the beach, in swimming pools, in their homes, and even in my own garage!! The types of exercises and different routines I can come up with are LIMITLESS!!
As a US Marine and well rounded athlete (volleyball, racquet sports, football, softball, cycling, running, and boxing), I have gained an appreciation for the unlimited potential that hard work, discipline, proper motivation, and proper direction can bring.
When I was a child and as a teenager I was always overweight. After getting out of the Marines in 1997 I found that I had to keep up a steady exercise routine if I did not want to be 300 pounds before I hit 40. I am telling you this to make it clear that you do not need to be genetically gifted to look and feel great.
My other passion is ministry and helping disadvantaged kids. I have formed a non-profit called Operation Help the Kids Inc. which raises money to help other youth related organizations to purchase or obtain fitness and recreation equipment for the kids they serve.
I truly believe that life is not about what we get but what we give and that’s why I love what I do.
