My Facts 'n Stats:

I have been an athlete for over 30 years. I am a Doctor of Chiropractic in Southern California. I have practiced in California and Nevada treating high school, college, semi-pro, professional, Olympic gold medal athletes, fire, police, military, and special forces personnel. I am a Professor of Chiropractic Technique at the Southern California University of Health Sciences and I enjoy teaching our future Doctors.

I received my Certification in Strength and Conditioning in 2000. I am one of only 300 worldwide that is both a C.S.C.S. and a Doctor of Chiropractic. In 1999, I became a Certified Specialist in Performance Nutrition (C.S.P.N.) with additional Certifications in Exercise & Pregnancy, Exercise & Fibromyalgia, Exercise & Creatine Supplementation, Plyometric Training, and training for Running and Cycling.

I have extensive knowledge and experience in treating sports injuries. I was on the medical team for the World Shotokan Karate Championships in 1997.

I was an Emergency Medical Technician (E.M.T.) for 4 years, from 1989-1993, and I have been Certified in C.P.R. and Basic Life Support since 1989.

I am also the first Law Enforcement Officer and the first Doctor in my family. I was an officer when I was just 22 years old. I received several commendable reports, including one for my service during the L.A. Riots of 1992.

I got into fitness at a very young age because of my stepfather. He was very athletic and encouraged me to try many different sports. He was a great example of living a healthy lifestyle. I was on a swim team in my pre-teen years. I ran cross-country in high school, enjoyed working out daily at the gym, and began competing in triathlons in Northern California.

I have also competed in 10k runs, cycling, golf, firearms competitions, and karate. I was the personal training partner and consultant for a two time Hawaii Ironman® Triathlete.
