A Passion for Empowerment Through Fitness and Nutrition
From an early age, I always harbored a deep desire to help people, but the path to realizing this aspiration wasn't always clear. It wasn't until I was 15 that my true calling began to take shape, sparked by a profound love for training and the intricate science of nutrition.
Discovering Empowerment Through Training and Nutrition
• My journey into the world of fitness and health began when strength training and nutritional knowledge empowered me to feel stronger and more confident. This personal transformation ignited a desire to help others experience the same sense of empowerment.

The Evolution of a Fitness Professional

From Athletic Prowess to Rediscovery in Fitness
Born and raised in Tinton Falls, NJ, my journey began at Monmouth Regional High School, where the early seeds of my athletic and academic future were sown. My path led me to Fordham University, where I not only accelerated my academic pursuits at the Gabelli Business School, graduating in just three and a half years with a Bachelor's in Finance, but also excelled on the football field.
A Flourishing Collegiate Football Career
• My time at Fordham was marked by a harmonious blend of academic rigor and athletic excellence. As a member of the Fordham football team, I achieved numerous accolades, including being a 3x All-league performer and 4x Academic All-Conference.
• My football career was distinguished by notable achievements, including the 2018 Rich Marrin’ Team MVP and setting the record as the all-time touchdown holder for a Tight End in the school's history.
The Brief Professional Football Stint
• Post-graduation, my football journey reached a pinnacle when I signed a contract with the NY Giants, an opportunity that was both a dream and a milestone.
• However, this professional chapter was short-lived, as injury sidelined me after just one season, leading to an unforeseen end to my athletic career.
Finding a New Direction in Fitness and Bodybuilding
• The conclusion of my football career left me adrift, searching for a new purpose and direction in life. It was a challenging period filled with uncertainty and self-reflection.
• The turning point came when I fully embraced fitness and bodybuilding. What began as a personal quest for physical and mental challenge evolved into a newfound passion, driven by the culture and community within the fitness world.
Personal Interests and Current Life
• My interests extend beyond the realm of fitness. I find solace and rejuvenation in nature, and I have a keen interest in health, fitness, and investing.
• Currently, I reside down the "Jersey Shore" with my fiancé and our two dogs, enjoying a life that balances professional goals with personal fulfillment and joy.

A Transformational Journey from Argentina to Fitness Coaching
Born and raised in Argentina, my early years were far from the world of intense sports. My childhood was spent playing field hockey, and during high school, I dabbled in tennis. Growing up, I was always on the heavier side, with little knowledge or guidance on healthy eating habits.
A Life-Changing Move to the United States

Discovering Fitness: A Self-Driven Transformation

• As months passed, I began to see changes in my physique. This progress fueled my curiosity, leading me to delve into learning about exercises and nutrition, applying this newfound knowledge to transform myself.
Pursuing a Career in Fitness
• By 2018, with a completely transformed physique and a deep passion for the fitness process, I obtained my PT certification through ISSA. This was a step towards my goal of helping others achieve their fitness transformations.
• In 2019, I transitioned to become an independent trainer, handling both in-person and online clients. This move proved to be life-changing, opening a new chapter in my professional life.
A Deepening Passion for Bodybuilding
• My fascination with fitness evolved into a passion for bodybuilding. I competed in my first bodybuilding show in 2021 in the men's physique category.
• Pushing my limits, I competed again in July 2023, this time in the Bodybuilding class. Each competition reinforced my love and dedication to the sport.
Coaching: More Than Just Training
• My love for fitness is deeply intertwined with my passion for teaching. Guiding people towards healthier lifestyles and witnessing their transformations brings me immense joy.
