After an enlistment in the Marine Corps, then fitness
management/personal training, then some research work, I now work
as a health coach, helping employees in the area with their health
concerns and injuries. I also do a small amount of personal
training on the side.
I love to try to figure out dysfunctions and find the root cause of
pain. I also love that I am blessed with a job in which I can
actually use my education to directly help others feel better and
live longer (it wasn't always that way).
Five year plan - either practicing orthopedic PT or
kinesiotherapist and doing some teaching, or moving forward as a
health coach.
One of my hobbies is studying philosophy and theology, and I'm
working on starting a discussion group at a local college and/or at
my church on defending one's faith with reason.
I also enjoy exercise, and like to lift weights/kettlebells,
practice martial arts, and hike.
