"Strength is never a weakness."
- Mark Bell
​
Throughout my career as a strength athlete this quote has always resonated with me. Success in the weight room isn't always dictated by brute strength alone; athletes need a strong base of knowledge to excel. Furthering my education in Fitness and Health Promotions gave me exactly that. This program is where I discovered the sports of Powerlifting and Strongman. Since then I've competed in both at an international level. My internship at a CrossFit gym broadened my horizons even further. I received my CrossFit Level 1 Trainer certificate so that I could put my expertise into practice as a coach. From there I dove headfirst into the Strength & Conditioning field as a coach at Canadian Strength. My clients have ranged from having never heard about Powerlifting, to athletes competing nationally. The programs I create are driven by scientific evidence and customized to each individual to guarantee success.
