About Me

Hey, I’m Jake — a certified personal trainer, nutritionist, Marine Corps veteran, and coach with a passion for helping people build muscle, move better, and feel more confident in their skin.

During my 9 years of active duty in the Marine Corps, I didn’t just live the fitness lifestyle — I led it. I trained incoming applicants to prepare them for boot camp, giving them the physical and mental tools to succeed. That same mission-driven mindset carries into how I coach today.

I'm certified in personal training and nutrition through ISSA, and currently finishing my degree in Exercise Physiology with a focus on Human Performance at the University of Louisville (just two semesters to go). I also bring over 2 years of experience coaching at Anytime Fitness, where I’ve helped clients of all backgrounds get stronger and more consistent.

Whether you're brand new to lifting, returning after time off, or ready to level up your routine — I’ll meet you where you’re at and build a plan that works with your life, not against it.
