My Background // My 'Story"

I was always the overweight kid growing up. When I was 15 I stood 5'5" and weighed in at just over 300lbs. I started wrestling at that point and I had to lose weight to be able to wrestle. Over the course of the next 14 months my coach kept telling me that I would be stronger at this weight or this one, until I made it to 174lbs. From that point I built up to a decent 210lbs by the time I graduated. Soon after I started college I stopped working out. Between work, school, and partying too much I didn't keep it up. I ended up going down a very bad road that led to drug and alcohol abuse. Thanks to my family for their support and help, I got better. I then rediscovered an old addiction and found myself in the gym as often as possible. I finally made it my life. Now I am a licensed trainer and gym owner. I've competed in a couple of NPC shows, but am now ready to make my first appearance on a FAME stage.

My mother is my hero. She has sacrificed and given so much. If I can be half the parent and friend to my kids that she has been to me, they will be very blessed.
