I started CrossFit in 2016 because someone said to me “just as long as you don’t start CrossFit. It’s a cult”. Challenge accepted. CrossFit was a gateway to strength sports for me. I have competed in numerous strongman competitions and weightlifting competitions. I was certified by US Strongman as an official coach and gym in 2021.  I’ve coached numerous national level competitors as well as hosted multiple strongman events.

I’m a father of 2 including our very own Raegan (pictured lifting heavy!) Both of my kids have competed in strength sports at a national level, Raegan in strongman (strongwoman) and Brady (14) in Olympic lifting.  

The biggest thing for me is fitness should be fun and that’s why I always end up returning to my root of CrossFit, and now my current passion which is judging. I have been a  Wodapalooza judge for the last 5 contests they have thrown!
