Life Changes. I have had some major ones in the last three years. Iam originally from Lewiston Idaho. Graduated high school and served four years in the Air Force as a security Policeman. Stationed in Egypt, Spain, Germany and at Mcchord Air Force Base in Tacoma Wa. Moved back to Lewiston and worked in Law Enforcment and then five years with 24 hour fitness as a personal trainer, fitness manager and general manager.After the club sold I pursued my degree in history and political science. I have a 4.00 GPA and my passion is writing about historical events and how they effect us today.As far as fitness goes I started working out in 1987 when I met Kim Farrison and Mike "Baby Hulk" Harris at the Executive Health Club in Tacoma. I have been at it ever since then. I competed in Powerlifting and continued training until I hit some challenges in 2001-2003. I went through a divorce and a job loss as well as loosing a bid on a business I was putting alot of time and energy into. My weight went from a fairly solid 270 to almost 300lbs. I decided to switch gears. I contacted my long time friend Shane Jack in Portland Oregon and started training for bodybuilding. In 18 months I was 211 lbs and took fourth in the 2005 Empire Classic in Spokane Wa. I was thrilled!!!! I continue to train and just took third in the novice heavyweight class at the 2006 Evergreen State at Wenatchee Wa. I have placed some before and after pictures up, I hope to continue to inspire people to achieve their health and fitness goals, and show by example what can be done with the right knowledge and motivation!
