I was born and raised in a small town just outside of Dallas, Texas. Once out of high school, I moved to Pensacola, FL and attended Liberty University. I majored in Business Administration as well as Pastoral Leadership. While attending school, I met my beautiful wife, Alissa. We have one fur baby, a miniature golden doodle, Cannoli. We moved to Colorado in the summer of 2021 because we were tired of humidity and hurricanes. On the weekends, you can typically find all three of us either in the mountains hiking, in the rivers fly fishing, or skiing at Wolf Creek. I began my new health journey shortly after the winter of 2012. During the second semester of my senior year of high school, I had to make the most difficult decision of my life, I had to make the decision to take my father off life support. My father was a victim of Pfizer Pharmaceuticals. Growing up, I witnessed my father take medication after medication, every day of his life. My father suffered from arthritis and was being prescribed every new drug that came to the market. At the age of 59, my dad had his seventh, and final heart attack that would end up taking his life. As you could imagine, I was devastated and angry. I decided that I would not succumb to the life that my father was a victim of. I am so grateful to be working in functional medicine so that I can educate people on healthier alternatives than modern medicine.
