I'm passionate about health, nutrition, fitness, and inspiring people to live a healthy and active lifestyle.

Set daily, monthly and long term goals and dreams. Don't ever be afraid to dream too big. Nothing is impossible. If you believe in yourself, you can achieve it.

If you are afraid of failure, you don't deserve success.

You don't always get stronger on the days that everything comes easily to you.

The Creator is not a careless mechanic.

The more prepared I am, the more I'll be in control, less nervous, less stressed and more focused.

If all else fails, I could go to a train station and open up my saxophone case and make some bucks. I can do "Mary Had A Little Lamb," I can do "Happy Birthday."

I think the idea is that every person has to live for his or her own life and then make the choice to share it with other people. Maybe that is what makes people "participate.

The most important thing is family.
