Tell us a bit about your journey...
I am a professional firefighter (8 years), personal trainer (10 years) and mountaineer (over 15 years). My fitness journey started as a child, I was a highly competitive swimmer and runner throughout school, and later played water polo and raced in mountain biking. I also pursued professionally and personally Outdoor Recreation guiding activities including hiking, kayaking, rock climbing and mountaineering. Later in life as I became a shift worker I needed to find sport that was not affected by my shifts so my focus became gym based training. I found a new passion and I became a personal trainer and coach, gaining years of experience and eventually competing myself in bodybuilding. I also became a professional firefighter, gaining valuable experience and knowledge of a completely different set of fitness activities. Based on all this background I established my online coaching programs for nutrition and training. Three years ago I transitioned to a plant based lifestyle and have never looked back. I am passionate about helping others do the same! I have recently also returned to a real passion of mine and once again become heavily involved in climbing and mountaineering, working towards the seven tallest summits on the seven continents. I have subsequently combined these passions and now help people work toward health and fitness goals not just in the traditional body composition sense, but now also for specific outdoor pursuits, and helping those people who want to transition into a plant based lifestyle.
