About Me

A recent Boston transplant from the Ocean State, I fell in love with fitness when I started doing and coaching functional fitness. Driven to make an even greater impact in my community, I began to work closely with Rhode Island's veterans, connecting them to their community through a common love of physical activity.  My love of running led me to start my own weekly run crew, which blossomed into his founding November Project Providence.  I still co-lead the largest run crew in Rhode Island, and I am a community ambassador for lululemon and On Running. 

I found rowing when a long time friend gifted him an Erg.  My wife, Kathleen, brought him to his first class at Row Republic, and I was HOOKED! There's nothing like that mix of strength and endurance that a Row Republic workout provides!

​

Why I Row  I love the feeling of pushing myself further than I thought possible, getting faster, getting stronger, and getting to spend time with the best community in Boston.

​

Music Style Big Beat Drops, Old School Hip Hop.  And 100% Taylor Swift.
