I was born in Calgary, Alberta. Was moved around a bit as a kid and grew up mostly in North Dakota in the small college town of Grand Forks (home of the infamous Fighting Sioux...now “Fighting Hawks” hockey team). I received my B.S. in Pre-med/Psychology with minors in Chemistry and Biology from the University of North Dakota and then went on to receive my D.C. (Doctor of Chiropractic) from Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, MN. My wife Kristen and I and our little pup Lambeau moved here to Fort Collins just this last March when I was hired at Alignment Natural Medicine.

I have always played team sports (Football, Basketball, Volleyball, Golf, Skiing, etc...) with most of my focus on soccer and am always looking for ways to be active. It was in 2010 I suffered 2 low back disc herinations that taught me that I am not invincible and led me to the career path I am on today. It took almost 2 years to fully recover but it lit a fire in me to never go through something like that again and to learn how to better take care of my body so that I can use and abuse it for the rest of my life. In turn I get to teach what I have learned to others so they too can benefit and hopefully prevent injuries like I had.

Right now most of the time you will find us out on long hikes with the dog or camping as mush as possible. I’m a big fan of cars and motorcycles so you can pretty much get me talking about anything with a motor that goes fast for hours.

The reason I CrossCit is because for me it is by far the most fun I have ever had training my body. I have never seen my body change faster or more dramatically than I have doing CrossFit. I’m in love with the variety of movements and the mastery of so many different components. There is always a challenge and it is always pushing you to get better, faster, stronger. I believe that the functional movement training is the best way to provide life long durability and what we develop in the gym actually translates to real world challenges. Plus the community cannot be beat!

I chose Choice City as my new home because everyone was instantly welcoming and passed no judgments so I felt comfortable from day 1. All on top of the fact that the coaching and programming are top tier! I am very happy to be joining the Fit Fam!
