His passion for nutrition began in Hawai'i, where he grew up in a diverse culture surrounded by the spirit of Aloha. When his grandmother suffered from Type 2 Diabetes, he didn't realize how diet and exercise played a role in both prevention and disease management. After understanding how food and exercise are tied together he set his journey to becoming a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. The problem he found, was access to high-quality healthy partner who change behaviors of the public.
With his mind for business, nutrition, and fitness, he will take you through your wellness, optimize your health and bring you to your greatest quality of life.
