Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. - 1 Corinthians 15:58
A little bit about me
I was born and raised in Allentown Pennsylvania and graduated from William Allen High School in 1989. I worked with 3 and 5 gate American Saddlebred horses through my teens and early 20"s and when an opportunity open to take a job selling and repairing fitness equipment I left to start my career in the fitness industry. In 1994 I opened up my own nutrition store (Top Physique Sports Nutrition) that at one time had 2 locations with and 3 additional satellite locations.
I started sponsoring local bodybuilding events in the Northeast. and in 2000 I was presented with an opportunity to take over the NPC Lehigh Valley Championships. Before I knew it I was running the NPC Pennsylvania State Championships, the NPC Mountain Valley Championships (which would later become the NPC Big Cat Classic), the NPC Keystone Championships, the NPC Natural Top Physique Championships and in 2007 the IFBB Keystone Men's Pro Show where IFBB Pro Dennis Wolf won his first pro show.
Worked as a fitness adviser for Men's Health Magazine in the early 2000's. I was the Vice President of Ab-ulous Meals Inc. where we produced high protein, low glycemic carbohydrate 16oz meals that was showcased at the Arnold Classic, L.A. Fit Expo, Club Industry and IHRSA Expos. When had the pleasure of having one of the best in the business as our spokesperson, none other then Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler. Unfortunately with the collapse of the economy in 2008 we had stop operation.
I have a dual residency now and travel back and forth between Pennsylvania and the in the beautiful state of Tennessee. I'm married to with my beautiful wife Valerie and work part time for a fitness equipment company called Fitness Solutions. We attend Faith Promise Church and try our best to allow God to work through us.
Iron Sharpens Iron Productions events continue to grow and my co promoter Jack and I are very blessed and thankful to be a part of the NPC and don't plan of slowing down or stopping anytime soon.
