About me

I was born and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina, and fitness has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, though my relationship with it hasn’t always been a healthy one.

I’ve been on both ends of the spectrum — underweight and struggling to put on muscle, then overweight and feeling awful. I know what it’s like to feel frustrated, inconsistent, and unsure if what you’re doing in the gym is actually working.

What I eventually realized was that my results weren’t just being shaped by how I trained or how I ate, but by my habits, mindset, and the systems I followed day to day. Every time I made a change for the better — physically or mentally — the quality of my life improved.

As I learned how to train properly, build muscle intentionally, use cardio strategically, and approach nutrition with a long-term mindset, everything began to shift. I didn’t just look different — I moved better, felt more confident, and showed up with more discipline and clarity in every area of my life.

That process is what led me to coaching.

Today, I’m grateful to have a wife and son who remind me why taking care of my health matters. My goal is not perfection, but consistency — building strength, resilience, and habits that support a high-quality life over the long run.

As a coach, I focus on helping people cut through confusion and avoid the mistakes I made early on. I believe there is a worst way, a decent way, and a best way to approach training and nutrition — and my role is to guide people toward the most effective, sustainable path forward.

My approach is built around gaining muscle, losing fat, improving conditioning, and staying pain-free enough to train for years — not just weeks or months. The goal isn’t to chase extremes, but to build a body that’s strong, capable, and maintainable for life.

Through both experience and formal education, I help clients develop structure, discipline, and confidence inside and outside the gym — so their results last long after the initial motivation fades.
