I'm a born and raised Jersey boy who's always enjoyed life in the fast lane. Since I was a kid, I've had a passion for creativity and fantasized about moving to California one day to become an entertainer. I was really into sports and stayed active while I was growing up too. In high school, I played football, wrestled, ran track and was on the weightlifting team in addition to the theater club. In 2012 and after graduating Loyola University Chicago, I moved to Los Angeles, CA to pursue my dreams.

​

Although I made my way west, I wasn't where I wanted to be in life. I was constantly being rejected at auditions and started losing confidence in my career, my dreams and myself. The overwhelming anxiety is what led me to yoga and meditation. I discovered the two in hopes of learning healthier ways to deal with rejection and stress. After being a practitioner for a few years, my friends and family encouraged me to become a teacher. That's when I realized my active lifestyle could lead me towards a whole new career path. In 2015, I became a certified personal trainer, spin, and yoga instructor. The confidence I developed over time from fitness helped me land great gigs including a few commercials and opening up shows for hip-hop legends like Too $hort. Knowing how much healthy living changed my life is my greatest motivation in wanting to help others. 

​

These days, I've taken myself out of the fast lane and am learning to do things more gracefully like a sea turtle.  At the same time, I never forget how having the heart of a lion is also necessary in order to reach our goals. My mission is to help others find their inner sea turtle and lion. In other words, I am motivated to guiding individuals towards their zen while going hard for their passions.

Stay humble, stay hungry my friends.
