I moved back to Newburgh in 2015 from Brooklyn with my wife Nicole. Outside of the gym you can find me wrangling my two daughters, helping run a web design agency with Nicole, or fixing one of the cars we have. I started at OVCF in 2022, before that I was doing mostly bodyweight HIIT style workouts locally, or on my own. While intimidated at first, I grew to love CrossFit through the community at OVCF for how encouraging and supportive everyone is. The positivity, the cheers (and sometimes the needed challenging nudge). I enjoy the sense of accomplishment from tackling something difficult that CrossFit provides daily. My favorite movements are the Snatch and Burpees precisely because they can be difficult. I wanted to become a coach to continue briniging the awesome OVCF culture to people so they feel that same sense of accomplishment that keeps my time at the gym one of the best parts of each day.
