About
I'm 48 years young and in the best shape of my life making my biggest transformation just in the last 7 years when I was past 40 years old. I've had a passion for fitness for over 30 years and have been a professional in the industry for 7 years. I'm a certified personal trainer and also one of only a few IFBB Men's Physique Pro competitors in Minnesota. I have experience working with everyone from beginners looking to achieve better health and fitness that have never lifted weights before, all the way to top-level physique competitors looking to be their best when they step on stage to compete in a bodybuilding show.

My goal with any of my clients is to help them not only achieve their fitness goals but to do it in a way that is sustainable and maintainable. Ultimately I want to help you create a healthier lifestyle for yourself through exercise and nutrition that will last you a lifetime. If you work with me I will be committed to your fitness success!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Meet for a complimentary consultation to see if we are a good match to work together for your goals. If we agree to go forward, we then look at our schedules to determine what days and times that will work with our schedules. During the duration of working with me, I make sure to utilize workouts that will be efficient and effective for the time. I also coach you on your nutrition during the time we work together to help get you to your goals faster.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
NFPT Certification. Working as a personal trainer since 2013. Achieved professional status as a physique competitor in 2014 and have competed for a number of years from 2015-2017 and again in 2021. I also coach physique competitors.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Make sure the trainer listens to your goals and can create a custom workout plan and also a meal plan that will help you achieve your goals. Both exercise and nutrition are both keys to your progress so make sure the trainer can provide help in both areas.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Here are just a few:
- Can you give me a realistic time frame that I can achieve my goals?
- What are some realistic goals I shoot for weekly and monthly?
- Can you give me assistance on what I should eat?
- Can you give me an exercise plan I can do on days I don't meet you to train?
