About
My personal training journey began in 2015 while studying Exercise Science at Cleveland State University. Since then, I have worked with individuals of all ages and fitness levels, helping them overcome physical limitations, improve mobility, build strength, and develop confidence in their bodies.
Fitness has been a lifelong passion of mine. I began lifting weights and practicing martial arts at the age of 13. In my twenties, I discovered my love for powerlifting and began competing. Since then, I have gained experience in raw, equipped, full-power, and bench-only competition.
Powerlifting has become a major part of my life, and I continue to pursue ambitious strength goals. One of my proudest accomplishments is completing a 600 lb equipped bench press in competition at 198 lb bodyweight.
My passion extends beyond lifting heavy weights. Writing individualized training programs, teaching biomechanics, and helping people understand how their bodies move excite me just as much as setting a new personal record.
I also enjoy introducing people to competitive powerlifting, helping them navigate federations, understand competition rules and equipment standards, and prepare for their first meet.
In addition to personal training, I offer Body Tempering services, incorporating specialized soft-tissue techniques to complement training, mobility, and recovery.
Whether your goal is to regain mobility, move without pain, improve your physique, build strength, or pursue competitive powerlifting, I look forward to helping you experience the satisfaction that comes with reaching your goals.
