My passion for health and fitness was initially programmed in me from a young age out of reverence for my dad. Watching someone who could run a triathlon only needing his normal fitness routine as a basis and strength train at an elite level, all the while raising a family and performing his role as a state trooper was more than enough for me. My time in the Marine Corps Infantry further enhanced this passion, as it was directly tied to my junior Marines’ survivability as well as mine.

My favorite way to train and stay fit is currently powerlifting. Powerlifting requires rigorous programming and a structure that I’ve fallen in love with. It also gives you quantitative goals to chase and achieve. Pushing the physical boundaries of my body while remaining a natural lifter has allowed me to obtain state records in PA, and I have no intention on stopping.

With the $20,000, I would put that towards a future home. It would be an extremely satisfying and humbling experience to know that I’ve helped contribute to my future home thanks to the hard work I’ve put in for years forging myself into becoming a well-rounded athlete.
