Fitness Bio:
I grew up in Smithfield RI. I was always strong, but on the skinny side. I played league soccer, did track in Jr High (discus and shotput) and high school (pole vault). I also wrestled in high school and came in 3rd in the Freshman State Championships.
I enjoyed my opportunities to train with weights and machines in High School. My greatest workout was cutting down trees, splitting and selling firewood.
I am an Eagle Scout and always enjoyed hiking and being outdoors.
I have always loved sailing both for leisure and competitively.
I went to the Coast Guard Academy and hit the gym hard with my buddies there. My weight and size increased as I grew stronger.
After graduation I went to scuba school in Coronado and spent 5 weeks with the 1st Recon Marines. I was in the best shape of my life.
I did three tours aboard Coast Guard cutters (BASSWOOD in Guam, WESTWIND in Mobile, AL and NORTHWIND inWilmington NC). I kept up with my lifting, increased my running and played volleyball whenever I could.
I wound up in Washington DC at Coast Guard Headquarters. I continued in the gyms here both at work and at my apartment. I swam, played tennis and did aerobics as well as continued my sailing.
I dated a girl who loved biking, jogging, tennis and being outdoors.
We married and had 3 children. With them I have enjoyed helping them practice, football, baseball, basketball, soccer and lacrosse. I sailed for a while. I played tennis and biked when I could and continued to workout at work, gyms and home.
