How I got here...
Childhood
A lot of kids go through growth spurts. Mine hit me a little harder than others. I was a size 36 waist in 6th grade.
Youth Sports
To keep me in shape, my parents kept me moving. Playing a different sport every season and year round club sports
15- 17 yrs old
I played baseball, basketball, football and soccer in high school.
18 years old
Goal to play college football. Got a gym membership at a local Globo Gym (24 Hour Fitness) and got obsessed with nutrition and training.
19 yrs old
Walk-on at Carroll College for one of sports most winningest coaches, Mike Van Diest, who had won 6 out of the past 12 NAIA National Championships.
20 yrs old
I went from 169 lbs to 200 lbs. My bench, squat, clean accumulative was over 1,000 lbs, and I ran a 4.5 40. Started seeing some time on the field and earned my way to a scholarship.
21 yrs old
Injury sidelined me and put me in the training room. I was surrounded by athletes wanting to get leaner, faster and stronger. Seeing my results, they started asking me questions about my journey. This is where my experience as a "trainer" began. Although I loved the game, I realized that I loved working with people more.

Post-college sports. Stopped working out completely. Eating fast food everyday. Got the most out of shape I have been. 212 lbs of uncomfortable weight.

God had a different plan. I knew I wanted to start helping people. I got back into the gym. Left my job in marketing to start a business (personal training business).
24 yrs old (cont.)
I started powerlifting, lifting heavy and eating more, resulting in 22 lbs of muscle gain, going from 200 lbs to my all-time high weight, 222 lbs.
25 yrs old
Covid shut down my personal training business. Moved back to Washington State because I missed my family. Lost and didn’t know what to do.
26 yrs old
Went full time with BeGreatFitness.com to help people who want to start their health and fitness journey.
