With over 25 years in fitness and 34 years in Martial Arts, I've been able to help thousands of people. Helping them also came with a price...

I became so obsessed helping others that I ended up falling further and further down the rabbit hole. After losing my first business to a friend I trusted with an investment, I had to pull myself up and fight to get back to the top.

I've struggled my entire life with depression and anxiety. I wore "two masks" more often than not when I was out with friends. Alcohol became my go to for everything and it took me forever to figure out who I was.

I knew that I needed to stop making excuses and start using my downfall as a foundation to come back stronger. I had to find a way to help people the same way I was able to overcome my own demons and challenges.

In 2011 I built a fitness facility from scratch and changed thousands of lives worldwide. I learned a lot about myself in the 9 years I owned my gym and knew that I still had a higher calling.

I knew that the only way to get people to break their habits was not just physically, but MENTALLY as well.

After years of trial and error, I was finally able to put all the pieces together and develop the Unbreakable Academy.

I have an amazing 7 year old son named Nico and he has played a massive role in the launch of the Unbreakable Academy.

I am now a mindset and business consultant for high level entrepreneurs and company executives.

Let me help YOU smash mental barriers and turn YOUR trauma into TRIUMPH!
