Born and raised in South Florida. I’ve always been a competitive and active person.
Grew up playing multiple sports baseball, football and hockey. Racing motocross for 10+ years this is where I learned and developed the love for training and fitness. After motocross career came to an end. I turned my passion and competitive nature with my fitness toward triathlons. During this time I got into personal training and started helping others achieve their goals around 2008. Was introduced to CrossFit in 2011 and it was the perfect match. I was instantly hooked and started coaching in late 2012. My dream came true when I opened DFCF in 2015.

What drives me?
To be an example and inspire people to see how far they can go with their fitness goals. That they can achieve more than they ever thought possible.

About me:
“I’ve been a fan of all types of sports and fitness since a young age. Bodybuilding and global gyms were my thing for a while until i ran into Crossfit about eight years ago. It was love at first sight. I’ve been coaching Crossfit for six years now and will continue to do so as my love for the sport and helping people achieve their goals continues to grow. I am also certified in coaching for level one in Crossfit.”
