[wa-wps]
I was born and raised in a very small town called Lawrence, Michigan. I started lifting weights to make me a better football player around 15 years old. I started training at a gym in the nearby town of Paw Paw the summer before my senior year of high school. While there, I got in with a group of powerlifters and the rest is history. I did my first competition at the end of the summer in 2001 and I haven’t stopped competing since then. After high school, I attended Hope College and played one year of football. I ended up leaving after one year and I have been focusing on powerlifting ever since.
I currently live with my wife of 10 years Margaret, my daughters Zoey and Piper in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I have worked in rodent production and making small deliveries for a construction company. I have been laid of 3 times in a row, so I took the opportunity to stay at home and take care of my kids. I am slowly working on an associate’s degree in Business Administration to keep me busy. My family is currently in the process of moving back to our hometown of Lawrence, MI.
Most of the competitions I have done have been multi-ply, with a couple raw meets thrown in. I have totaled pro in three weight classes. The totals were 2304 at 275, 2435 at 308 and 2500 at SHW. My best lifts to date are a 1,060 squat, an 800 bench and a 715 deadlift. I have also totaled 1975 at SHW in a raw meet. My numbers were a 775 squat, a 500 bench and a 700 deadlift.
