    I wasn’t always the man people looked to for strength, purpose, or leadership.

    I grew up as the kid with asthma—slow, overweight, always finishing last. I used my health as a shield for my ego. An excuse for why I “couldn’t” keep up. But eventually, I got sick of hiding.

    So I overcorrected—hard.

    I threw myself into CrossFit competitions, brutal wildland firefighting seasons, and unforgiving endurance events. I built a body I was proud of and chased intensity like it was salvation. At first, it was about proving I was no longer weak. I thought if I trained hard enough, I’d become the man I was meant to be.

    But in 2021, everything changed.

    My daughter was growing up—and I realized being fit wasn’t enough. She didn’t need a badass. She needed a father. A leader. A man who showed up with purpose, presence, and conviction. That became my new mission: to become the man my family needed—physically strong, mentally clear, spiritually grounded, and relentlessly present.

    That shift reshaped everything: how I trained, how I worked, and how I led. Through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, mindset work, and an unshakable commitment to growth, I rebuilt not just my body—but my identity.

    Today, I coach driven individuals who are done sacrificing their health, presence, or legacy just to keep chasing more. I help them realign with their purpose, reclaim their time, and build lives that match the weight of their responsibility.
