What led you to CrossFit?
I saw the 2011 CrossFit games and I was like this shit 
looks like it will make me throw up, I got to try it. (Came close, but not yet.)
What's has surprised you the most about CrossFit?
The first time I did Diane, it was a mess. But it was fun. I knew then that this will never 
be boring and I will always be challenged.  I was surprised by the fact that it requires so 
much more than strength and conditioning
What is the movement that you love the most, and why?
I like the snatch the most because it is challenging to me. It takes strength, timing, 
control, positioning, and balance.
What is the movement that you hate the most, and why?
I hate Turkish get-ups because they are terrible…that is all
What are you most nervous about with the Games? 
I Don’t Get Nervous
What is the one profession you wish you'd tried? 
I should have tried to be a strength and conditioning coach. I live in the gym anyway.
Other than training, what is the one hobby you most enjoy?
Other than training, I play video games and party like a rock star
What is the one thing you wish people knew about you?
I’m pretty much an open book, so I don’t really think there is anything people don’t know 
about me.
