What I Love About Bodybuilding: Absolutely the comrade and friendships that develops from this sport. The feeling backstage is almost electric at times.

Favorite Moment during Competition: Walking to the X after you name has been called, right before your routine starts and the crowd is sitting there waiting.

What I Dislike About Bodybuilding: Cardio and Dieting ( that’s an easy one )

Best Body Part: Would be my back and abs

Worst Body Part: My quads, although I am giving it my all to change that!!

Hobbies Outside Of Bodybuilding: Spending time with my family, big computer geek here so anything in that area is fun lol, the beach, I’m a movie buff both colleting and watching,

Future Plans: In the sport: compete till I can’t anymore, and promote. In Life: several on the entrepreneurial side.

Special Thanks: My kids for dealing with me when they know I am tired, my babe Lisa, who is always there to help, support, critique, listen, guide Etc. etc. etc. she is amazing to me. My family (Mom, brothers and sister) for believing in me. And last but def not least all my friends who are just as addicted to this crazy sport as I am – Halz, Rocket, Namster, Youngblood, Gillis, Chad (aka Big C) Petersen, Kunkel, Mr. & Mrs. Stevie P, Jamie, Neil Grossman and everyone else who I have had the honor to get to know.
