About

I believe fitness should be simple, enjoyable, and sustainable. With over 40 years of experience, I help people get stronger, stay active, and build confidence through personalized training that fits their lifestyle.

My passion for fitness started young—I got my first bench press at 12 and was a gym regular by 16. Over the years, I’ve experimented with countless training styles and nutrition plans, learning what truly works to stay lean, build muscle, and maintain strength well into my 50s. Fitness has always been my foundation, fueling my energy for surfing, snowboarding, and now, keeping up with my grandson.


I began my personal training career as a mobile trainer, bringing customized workouts to homes and parks. Later, I managed a boutique gym while leading offsite group training at behavioral health centers and group homes. I specialize in working with people who may be new to fitness, helping them overcome challenges, build strength, and gain confidence they didn’t know they had.


My training approach is welcoming, not intimidating. I start by understanding my clients’ favorite activities—whether it’s pickleball, skiing, biking, or gardening—and create workouts that enhance their lifestyle. Using a mix of bodyweight exercises, TRX, resistance bands, battle ropes, and free weights, I emphasize progressive overload to build lean muscle, reduce body fat, and boost metabolism.


Recently, I moved from Dana Point to Folsom to be closer to my grandson, and my wife and I love the area’s outdoor lifestyle and community. Now, I’m here to help you move better, feel stronger, and build lasting habits that fit your life. Whether you’re just starting or looking to break through a plateau, let’s create a plan that works for you. Ready to get started? Let’s talk!
