How did I get Into Health/Fitness? I got into fitness by way of athletics. I excelled in three sports in high school - basketball, football, and baseball and decided to take a full scholarship in basketball to Clark University here in Atlanta Georgia where I completed my undergraduate degree in Exercise Science and went on to complete my master’s degree at Michigan State University. I have always been passionate about health/fitness and loved leading and helping people, so a career in fitness/wellness was the natural profession for me.
What Is The Best Part About Being An Author? The best part about being an author is being able to reach more people with content that I am passionate about, and the community amongst authors is very supportive, sort of like a team. Also, the fact of knowing that my work helps people reach their full potential through health and fitness, all while creating a healthier world physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually is very rewarding.
Fun Fact: I'm an author of four books, also I hosted two television shows in Cleveland, Ohio (Fitness Friday) and Lansing, Michigan (Meet The Experts), and I was featured on (NBC's – “The Biggest Loser" Season #5) as one of the personal trainers alongside Jillian and Bob. I was with the Green Team - a father and daughter duo- their names are Lynn and Genny Westphal. I was a columnist in the health section for (COSZO Magazine.) I wrote in the ’Life’ section on rehab/recovery for the (Lansing State Journal) as well as health/fitness pieces in (Noise Magazine) and several local papers in Cleveland, Ohio, and Lansing Michigan.
Hobbies: When I’m not writing I’m at church, spending time with my children, family/friends, working out, or just relaxing watching movies. Also, I love to be out in nature and hiking as it gives me a broader perspective of things that are most important for having a healthy spirit, mind, and body.
