Experienced jack of all trades coming from a Farming background with a strong Family connection. From there I earned my stripes in the Navy serving various roles surrounding the duties of a Military Police Officer and Military leader. During that time, I began my pursuit of education of the physical body. With a heavy focus on fitness everywhere I went in the Navy, I had to bring the best product to my brothers and sisters in arms. This pursuit of the best product led me to become a CrossFit coach. Now, this may not be a big deal now, but in 2004 in San Diego it was the newest thing. The pursuit of ultimate fitness inevitably led me to study Nutrition extensively. I not only studied nutrition, but lived out a series of fad diets to do a personal qualitative comparison. Wondering why the majority of people find it impossible to have long term compliance to health enhancement programs led me to study Sport Psychology. I had to know what it was that kept people from reaching their goals. I ultimately figured it out, and at this point, I'm all in with the farming because having input into our system provides the physical and mental stimulus necessary for overall health, and the way I'm farming (following permaculture guidelines) could stop and even reverse global warming if more people were to get involved. I am still extremely passionate about fitness and nutrition, but now the pursuit is much more logical and rational. It comes from a place of observation of the objective not the subjective. Come by my farm sometime, I love bouncing my ideas off people.
