I came to the knowledge of health, sport nutrition, and body building in 1987. It was at this time that I met my wife of 19 years, who had several years experience in the field. I’ve been in this business since 1989. I didn’t know then that it would turn into a career. I have 12 yrs now as a health enthusiast! My specialty is body building and sports nutrition.

When I started working for Nutrition World I was stocking and didn’t know a lot about nutrition. I have learned a lot in the 2+ years that I have worked here and am always learning new things. I order the sports nutrition supplements, run registers, customer service, and still check in orders. I couldn’t ask to work with better. Working for Ed and Donna has been very rewarding.

My whole life I have been around nutrition. However it wasn’t until college that I realized nutrition was a true passion of mine. I love seeing what nutrition has not only done for me but what it has done for many around the world. Although, I am not a full time employee because of my school schedule, I can’t wait for the day that I can devote all of my time to educating the public on the amazing benefits of leading healthy lifestyles.
