I have been interested in nutrition for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories was watching Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s bodybuilding documentary, Pumping Iron, and being absolutely fascinated.

Growing up, I played just about every sport I could before putting all my focus into track and cross country. After I graduated college, I decided to make a change and start building muscle. I read every book, article, and magazine I could; looking at different diets, supplements, and workouts to maximize my results and even competed in a few physique competitions.

In 2013, I took a management position at a local GNC store and from there my interest grew. I quickly realized there was so much more to health than just “building muscle”. I started reading more about herbs, joint care, cardiovascular support, gut health, immune system, physical therapy, etc. The more I learned the more I wanted to know. That and my beautiful wife lead me to Chattanooga and ultimately Nutrition World.
