I grew up playing piano and one season of JV lacrosse. I was not raised in the most athletic or nutritionally healthy environment. My passion for fitness and nutrition sparked during college, where I discovered the wonders of resistance training and nutrition.
I quickly learned how an evidence-based approach helped me achieve my goals and wanted to share that with others. My approach to training and nutrition lies deep within my philosophy of education. Whether your goals are to get stronger, bigger, faster, or just overall healthier, I believe anyone can reach their full potential through training and eating smarter.
