I have spent over 20 years focusing on health, fitness, nutrition, anatomy, physiology, and human performance; it has been an amazing journey. Assisting others in seeing themselves as a ‘champions’ is as gratifying as it gets for work. In terms of my clients, their success is my success, and I thank them for their hard work and dedication. I love my business, because my business is my passion.

In 2005, I authored Forever Fit: The Easy-to-Follow, Step-by-Step Life Plan to Improve Your Body and Mind and in 2010, I released a 3-DVD series, Rx Nutrition: Eating for Improved Performance in Life, Fitness, and Multi-Sport.
