My Approach
My relationship with training started early.
I began going to the gym around 13 or 14 years old, mostly after school with a friend. We used to lift, mess around, and do calisthenics at school. At that time, it was simply fun — but once it became a habit, it never really left me.
In the beginning, my focus was straightforward: getting stronger. As progress came, the desire to improve body composition followed, especially during my younger years. Like many people, I was drawn to physical results — but even then, training was quietly building something deeper.
As life presented challenges in my early years, training became more than physical. It turned into a coping mechanism — a place where I could release tension, regain control, and stay grounded when things felt difficult.
After graduating from university, training stayed with me for new reasons. It became a way to protect what I had built, manage stress, and generate energy for long days of work and study in finance. As I balanced training with a career, I started noticing something important:
on the days I trained, I performed better cognitively. My focus, decision-making, and mental clarity were sharper compared to the days I didn’t train.
At that stage, fitness became a support system — a hobby that helped me show up better in my professional life while I focused on building my career.
When COVID hit, training took on yet another role. Working remotely, limited social interaction, and high work stress brought moments of anxiety. Movement became essential for mental health, emotional regulation, and maintaining a sense of stability during an uncertain time.
Over the last four years living in Los Angeles, life has challenged me in new and unexpected ways. Through those experiences, training helped me adapt, endure, and move forward. I began to understand that fitness, nutrition and wellness have many layers, far beyond strength or aesthetics and conventional nutrition approaches.
It was here that my approach evolved into a more integrated wellness system — combining physical training with lessons learned from my sports background to enhance energy levels, mental clarity, awareness, and overall performance. Training became a tool not just to feel good, but to operate at a higher level in everyday life.
Over the past two years, due to personal life circumstances, I’ve gone even deeper into areas such as nervous system regulation, focus, and awareness. I’ve explored practices like breathwork, meditation, intentional dopamine management, and the cultivation of flow states through training — learning how to use movement, challenge, and focus to access states of deep presence, clarity, and high performance.
How This Shapes My Coaching
My approach today is the result of all these stages. I don’t see training as a one-size-fits-all solution or just a physical goal to chase. I see it as a tool to build resilience, energy, confidence, mental clarity, and flow, adapted to where you are in life right now.
I coach with the understanding that fitness evolves — just like we do.
