As a skinny teenager in high school, my path to resistance training was like many in the desire to better myself, get stronger, and improve in athletics. I saw changes immediately and became hooked! I fell in love with the act of putting in the work in the gym and having direct control over those results. Growing up, my parents cooked healthy meals overall by hunting and always having fresh game on the menu, but I knew nothing about nutrition at the time, and how large of a role that plays.

My college years were spent juggling a demanding 4.5-year co-op schedule for General Motors (GM) as a mechanical engineer, traveling, training, and mastering the art of meal prepping. What started as a typical bodybuilding style of working out has molded into a functional athlete approach - combining multiple disciplines of body building, CrossFit, swimming, and mobility.

I’ve spent the last 15 years developing vehicles for GM, competing in CrossFit/Tactical Games events, and working towards my dream of entrepreneurship.

After years of collaborating with other manufacturing professionals, studying ingredient research, and continuing my own fitness journey, in 2023 I co-founded Motor City Supplements, LLC.
