I received my B.A. form the State University of New York at Plattsburgh. I hold the current position as Assistant Director of Academic Relations for the National Posture Institute, with commitment to providing an educational and research based standard in the health and fitness field. At the University of South Florida, I am a research assistant in a number of studies including heat stress and preventing back pain in firefighters. When not consumed with my studies and work, I am in the process of writing two books. Throughout my youth I was just another statistic of the plaguing obesity epidemic. I was burdened with an unhealthy lifestyle through bearing 280 pounds that proposed significant health risks along with facing social development issues. Despite being a large contribution to the football field, the excess weight limited my social relationships, provided ammunition for comical jokes and was a burden to my parent’s food bill. With my future in my scope, it was a harsh realization of the difficult upcoming life that was ahead of me if I did not reorganize my goals and lifestyle. Through understanding the problems and obstacles I was enduring and where I wanted to go in life, change was necessary. At this point in my life, I was a freshman in college at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh. I embarked on a new life and began altering nutritional habits and began exercising. I started educating myself through working with personal trainers and using free services offered by the fitness center. I learned how to exercise correctly that helped me fuel my motivation. I expanded my knowledge through attending presentations on nutrition provided for students. I implemented what I learned and developed new lifestyle habits by gradually eliminated foods and beverages I knew were unfavorable to my health. Through constant goal setting and achievement I shed an excess of 100 pounds. It amazes to this day, through appreciating the power behind exercising, and nutrition elevated my interest into a passion. My newfound appreciation propelled my goals to taking any free opportunity to invest my time into the health and fitness field. I elevated my experience through enrolling in health, fitness & wellness, and nutrition courses. I made myself proud, however I was not happy and satisfied to stop there. My attainment, through creating a healthy lifestyle was not good enough for me. I wanted more of an education, which brought me to the University of South Florida in the Exercise Science masters program. Through utilizing my education, will power, passion, hard work, and through always having a constant learning attitude I am determined to help others develop a healthier lifestyle. less
