Sports and fitness have always played a huge role in Byron’s life. He is a graduate of Saint Mary’s College, where he was a NCAA Division l athlete. Byron holds a degree in Health and Physical education, along with numerous personal training certifications. Today, Byron is an avid runner, hiker, and weightlifting enthusiast. He has run more than ten marathons, several 50k’s, and a 50 miler, and loves to incorporate strength training and weightlifting in his daily workouts.

Byron's fitness journey took an unexpected turn in April of 2017 when he was told that he needed lifesaving open heart surgery, which was performed at Stanford Hospital. His journey back to health inspired the local community. He went from not being able to sit up on his own to running the Boston Marathon nine months post-surgery. That same strong will and determination is what he uses to motivate and inspire his clients. His positive mindset and unwavering fortitude pushed him past the finish line, which many doctors thought would be impossible soon after surgery. He firmly believes that sometimes we’re tested not to show our weakness, but to discover our strengths.
