As a young kid growing up in Utah, I had an interesting childhood. I took up several sports, but focused on playing racquetball. I was one of the best racquetball players of my age in the nation and was briefly tied for rank 1 for boys under 18 in the country. I admit though that I wasn’t that good, and probably should have been ranked around 10 or so.

I also was obsessed with weight lifting in high school. My school had a ton of roiders, but I stayed strong while being natural.

I went to college at Stanford and now work in Silicon Valley at Plaxo.
I haven’t been very active these past 7 years of my life, but I am now determined to be in better shape now than when I was in high school. I’ve lost over 20 lbs in the past 2 years and want to help other people that are employed and don’t have that much time also cut the weight and get back in shape.
