I believe that we can achieve our life goals and dreams when we live a healthy lifestyle.
​
A healthy lifestyle necessitates physical activity and exercise. Simply put, Movement IS Medicine.
​
Too many people suffer from back pain, hip pain, shoulder pain, ankle pain and other assorted pain and injuries. These common ailments keep you from being able to run, lift, exercise, or even work. Physical activity and exercise is no longer a leisure activity. We NEED to be physically active and to exercise. The top most deadly diseases (Heart disease, Cancer, Stroke, Diabetes, &Lung Disease) all can be prevented with solid nutrition, movement, and keeping away from toxins (like smoking).
​
The kicker is these injuries, ailments, and pain that you deal with are ridiculously simple to correct, if you know the right techniques and strategies.
​
​
I am a follower of the The King of Kings (Jesus), Husband, Father, doctor, problem solver, athlete, servant, missionary, and entrepreneur.
​
I love pretty much every sport, but I am really good at ultimate disc. I am pretty good at soccer, tennis, spike ball, skateboarding and flag football. I am OK at basketball, baseball and volleyball. I also run and lift quite a bit too to fuel my addiction to sports.
I have been to Kenya 3 times and Haiti one time on mission trips. I plan on going back. This is a part of me.
