From a very early age I've been into fitness sports and working out. It has since grown into a passion of mine to the point where it helps to define me as a person. Once I started accomplishing my fitness goals it bled over into other areas of my life and gave me the confidence to push myself to the limit.

But there has been a point in my life where I did lose focus and gained weight, 25 pounds to be exact. And of course with the weight gain followed other problems such as high blood pressure, depression and low self esteem. The last straw for me came when the doctor put me on blood pressure medication at the age of 24. There was no way I was going to let that happen, so over the next year I focused on getting myself back in shape. I worked briefly with a few trainers that weren’t in shape themselves and to me that wasn’t very motivating. It wasn’t until I met a few trainers that were true bodybuilders that I became inspired. I wanted to do whatever it took to get a good looking physique like they had. I took bootcamps, ran, dieted properly and lifted weights and within a year I had shed the fat and put on lean and toned muscle. The transformation was amazing and I learned a lot from trial and error in the process.

Since then I’ve kept taking my body to new levels. I am now an ACE certified personal trainer I competed in my first competition in the March 2011 Muscle Contest and placed 5th in my weight class. After that I placed 3rd and 2nd in the 2011 Venice Beach Muscle Beach Classic and July 4th shows. Now I’m shooting for a number one spot.

I hope to motivate and inspire you to realize your potential. You’ll never know unless you try and I’ll be there to push you along the way.
