About

     I grew up in the wonderful Ski Town of Whitefish Montana on the Whitefish Lake Golf Course. I enjoyed the Lake and Golfing in the summers,  ski racing in the winters. I believe I was given the best environment any young person could have had growing up with my brother and sister. My mother owned her own Hair Salon and Dad worked on the Railroad. For money in the summers as a youngster, I sold golf balls that I found near our property  on the 11th hole, Lakeside 9. I had several Canadian customers. These were some of my fondest childhood memories.

     During my teenage years, I passionately worked out most everyday at the local Health Club and packed my own healthy meals to schools that a lot of my Jock friends made fun of me for. I played football all four [4] years of High School. I received the All Conference title and played 1st string in (2) State Championship football games as a linebacker.

     After High School, I pursued a career as a Fitness Trainer in Seattle. It brought me to places that I stayed for several months like New York City, California, Miami, Arizona, Costa Rica and Singapore to train clients. When I was in my thirties I sold my two [2] homes in the city of  Seattle Washington and moved back to Whitefish Montana. A friend and I started a newspaper in 2003, called the Whitefish Free Press. Shortly after a year in circulation, I took over 100% ownership, taking it from a 12 page Black and White to a 34 Page Full Color and into over 180 Valleywide locations. I Later sold it in 2006. My original partner has now started it back up as of April 4th, 2013.

      After selling the paper, I immediately signed up for the Army’s Infantry Unit for a 2 year contract in 2007 and also in a time of War, to get some sort of understanding of the war as a real Soldier. I requested a deploying Unit when starting my Military career. In 2009, I won 1st Place in the U.S. Forces, West Texas Bodybuilding contest. This was an Army Sponsored event and my enlistment was soon up. I ended my military career on a very healthy note.

     Post my Military Career, I attended  Media School at the University of Hawaii Leeward. The campus was located on the North Shore Side of the Island of Oahu. After two years in Hawaii I left the Islands and started a Digital Media Business in Whitefish, Montana.

      We created our first website in early 2012 over a holiday weekend. It was slow at first, then exploded. When I felt confident enough with my website design creations, I decided to shelf the business and take a solo Bike Adventure around the entire United States on a Snow Bike. I figured if I am going to take a ride, im going to be all in! Go heavy or go home. It will be a year project for my Relaxed Chaos project to be finished. This Fitness Journey Experience has been a game changer for me.  I am now making my way down the Eastern rim of the United States. My ultimate intention is to publish all of my cooking recipes I have saved throughout my life working in the Health and Fitness Industry.  I will bring compelling and unique photographer, video and narrative to the site as I place myself in a different place every night, cooking and sleeping under the stars and living to tell the story!
