Tell us about yourself
I've always been an avid athlete; growing up, I hated getting sick and visiting the doctors, so my question was always how did "I get it?" and "how do I avoid it"?. Funny enough, the answer was to eat healthily, be active, and you will have a stronger immune system. For the most part, that has kept me out of the hospital; of course, my visits now will be more for an overall check-up.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Building the clientele I have now and keeping them happy as they reach their goals in a healthy & safe way.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
The hardest thing would be having to oversee a lot of things to keep the vision going and consistent.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Be patient.
- Tackle one thing at a time
- Wherever you go, be sure to market your business one way or another.
