What got you into fitness
Training started around twelve years old in my middle school gym class. I just liked the way it made me feel. Going into high school, I began training for football, which I played into college. After graduation, I began training to be a police officer.
What's Your Source of Inspiration
My line of work has become my source of inspiration, not only because of the physical demands it has, but the mental toll it takes on people. With suicide rates among police rapidly increasing, I do my best to encourage others to train for those same reasons.
What's Your Go-To Cheat Meal
Pizza ... because it’s amazing.
What's Your Favorite TV Show
I don’t watch much TV.
What Does 'Never Settle' Mean To You
Putting an end to the complacent attitude I once had ... not just settling for average.
What's Your Biggest Achievement
Becoming a 1st Phorm Athlete.
What Keeps You Going
Knowing that other people rely on me, both at work and at home. If I’m not on top of my game, lives are at risk.
How Has 1st Phorm Changed Your Life
1st Phorm has helped me build a platform that I can use to help people all over the world. They’ve also become some of my closest friends and best support system.
