Before the kettlebells, the coaching, and the thousands of training sessions, there was an entirely different chapter of my life.
Some of you might not know this, but I once worked at Citibank, specializing in biometrics, fingerprint analysis, and security operations throughout Midtown Manhattan.
Suit and tie. Corporate America. A completely different environment from the one I spend my days in today.
Looking back, it’s interesting to see how much life has changed and how every experience has played a role in shaping who I’ve become.
Different industries. Different responsibilities. Different chapters. But every one of them has taught me something valuable.
Today, I get to spend my days doing something I’m incredibly passionate about: educating, coaching, and helping people discover what they’re physically capable of.
And there’s still so much more I want to learn and accomplish.
Sometimes the person you are today is only a small part of the story that got you here.
How many of you knew about this chapter of my life?
