I became involved with weight training at the age of 13 in order to battle a weight problem and to improve my self-esteem.
After lifting weights at home, I decided to join a local YMCA. Fortunately this particular YMCA had an extensive gym with a variety
of free weights and machines.
 In 1983 at the age of 17, I decided it was time to try competing,
and took home my first bodybuilding trophy, and placed fourth in the NPC Teenage Ohio North District. For the following 10 years I
competed successfully in a multitude of bodybuilding contests.
With my success on the bodybuilding stage I received a contract with Cybergenics, a New Jersey based supplement company. I was a spokes
person for them for three years, and was so well received I was given the responsibility of representing the company by handling all their
military accounts. This gave me the unique opportunity to make a living at what I
love to do, and travel the world in the process. Some of the places I made appearances were Japan, Okinawa, Korea, Germany,
Saudi Arabia and all over the US including Alaska.
After a bit of traveling, I felt the need to come back to the Cleveland, OH area and start my personal training and nutritional services.
The majority of my business is fueled by everyday people whose main desire is to lose weight, tone up and improve their overall health and fitness.
I am still very involved with the bodybuilding and fitness community, and often find time to write and take
photos for various bodybuilding and fitness publications. In addition, I am a promoter of NPC bodybuilding
and fitness events in the Cleveland area, and donate a good portion of the proceeds to the American Cancer Society.
