PT Solutions 2014, Vol. 1 Making Unstoppable Happen | Page 2

Even though I live in Florida, I am from Texas and a true Texan at heart. I was a strength and conditioning professional for a few years, training high school to professional athletes before I became a therapist. In fact, we worked closely with physical therapists while I was there in designing return to sport programming--that is how I became interested in pursuing physical therapy. I am married to my beautiful wife named Kimberly and have two kids. Caleb, my boy, is just over 2-years-old, and our new addition, Avreana, is 6-weeks-old today. My wife and I come from an athletic background and enjoy participating in all sorts of fitness and public health activities and train 4-6 days a week together. We are also heavily invested in our church family here in Fort Walton Beach. So, we stay pretty busy. FUN FACTS: - I am a huge Texas Longhorns, San Antonio Spurs, and Dallas Cowboys fan, even though I live in Florida. - Some people consider me a health food nut, but I have a monster weakness for those “make your own frozen yogurt” places. - I made the cut to be on the movie Friday Night Lights as one of the football players (not a big role at all), but chose to finish my Master’s Degree instead.
