BIO

WHAT GOT YOU INTO FITNESS?
I was tired of being skinny after graduating college. After I got my first job, there was a LA Fitness in the same plaza and I thought it'd be a great opportunity to build something for myself. What started as a goal ended up becoming a passion and a part of me. Can't imagine my life without it. 
WHAT'S YOUR SOURCE OF INSPIRATION?
Family and friends. I still look at a lot of interviews and talks Kobe Bryant did about Mamba Mentality and it helps keep me on track to continue being on the quest to become the best me. 
WHAT ARE YOUR FITNESS GOALS?
Trying to achieve the best overall physique for myself. Increasing my strength and size while keeping my mobility on point. Hitting the stage would be great to achieve as well.
WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE EVL SUPPLEMENTS?
ENGN SHRED, PUMPMODE, ISOLATE PROTEIN POWDER, BEETMODE
WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE EXERCISES?
Deadlifts, Glute Bridges, Squats and Chest Supported Rows. 
WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENT?
Becoming a Twitch Partner is one achievement I am very proud of accomplishing. I didn't have to compromise who I was in order to get it. My passion for fitness and helping others. All of that was enough. 
WHAT KEEPS YOU GOING?
My family. They've sacrificed so much for me to even be in the position I am today. I want to make sure I'm able to give them anything they ask for and that requires me to be the best version of myself. Always. 
WHAT'S YOUR GO TO CHEAT MEAL?
WINGS and TACOS. That is all.
