I am the owner and operator of Excelsior Strength.  I am a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), Strongfirst Kettlebell Instructor (SFG 1), and Functional Movement Specialist (FMS).  I have also held a certification as a USAW Sport Performance Coach teaching Olympic lifts for athletes and newcomers alike.  I have been a Personal Trainer/Strength and Conditioning Coach since 2002.  I earned my degree in Athletic Training from Dominican College (now, Dominican University) in Blauvelt, NY.  My approach to training has been to develop the client in the safest, most effective way possible.  I do that by continually learning new skills, leaning heavily on my past schooling, my top level certifications, and past experience of training thousands of people.  I have a passion for teaching movement and fitness to all populations of people.  I have worked with clients as young as 6yrs old up people in their 80's.  I worked with athletes of all levels from elementary school to the pros, and all populations in between.  I truly love working with anyone who has a little spark to make the commitment of attaining a greater strength.  I hope to turn that spark into a flame that will last a lifetime!
