A little bit about me and my approach

I have been working with individuals for the past fifteen years. I started out personal training at a corporate fitness center in Chicago. My wife and I moved to San Jose for one year because we had a serous urge to live in California. This was where I shifted towards the mental health side. As I got older, I started to see patterns in people. Anxiety, confusion, worry and a feeling of overwhelmingness seemed to be more prevalent. I started to integrate a therapeutic approach into my sessions. It’s been really enjoyable seeing people integrate fitness and a cognitive mental approach into one. Sometimes we might workout, sometimes we might just talk and sometimes we might do both. There is no right or wrong. Whichever style we see fits best for you that day.

From a fitness side I’ve continued educating myself on the most efficient movements that the human body can perform and applying those movements on you! Check out the gym icon on the top of the page to see what equipment is available to assist you.

I grew up in Columbus Ohio and enjoyed doing one of my greatest passions as a kid, playing soccer. It was a major part of my life through college and helped shape who I am today. I graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University. My wife and I were high school sweethearts and now have three wonderful and wild kids.

Wanna know even more? I’m scared of jellyfish. I want to learn to play the saxophone. I’m still coming to terms that my hair started to fall out so fast. I got really into house plants during the pandemic and now I’m realizing they need to be kept alive. I think a lot about what I would like to put on a billboard. The earth has been around for billions of years. At most we’re here for 100 years. Essentially just stopping over for a bit. We may as well make it enjoyable. Right? (That thought sits in my head a lot).
