Turning Point
During his playing career, Neil wasn't highly recruited coming out of high school, but instead of stopping, he put his head down to prove people wrong. This, in return, led him to a Division 1 college scholarship and professional soccer playing career. Neil takes this same energy and drive that he had for his soccer career and now directs it to helping others prove they also can achieve anything they put their mind to, whether that is with health and fitness or sport.
Motivation & Passion
"Nothing excites me more than to see people achieve their health and fitness goals. Seeing these moments is what keeps me coming back for more and continuing to help others achieve what they didn't think was possible. "
