Interview

  • How do you go that ‘extra mile' in your life?
    Coffee.
  • What are your greatest personal traits?
    I'm a good listener. I also am unfazed by whatever music is playing in an environment. In other words, you won't hear me ask you to change the radio station.
  • What do you do for fun?
    I used to be a dance teacher, then I decided that I liked dancing too much to have it tied to the variable flow of income of working at a dance studio. So I still dance for fun! I also like chess even though I'm not that good at it.
  • What’s your lifestyle? What makes you who you are?
    My lifestyle vacillates between sedentary and active. My life revolves around javascript and python (those are programming languages, by the way) as much as it does weights and hiking trails.
  • What would you like your followers to know about you that is unique and even a bit personal?
    I used to feel unique for being a southern boy who liked K-pop and reggaeton as much as hip hop...but now k-pop and reggaeton are all over the place. Which is a good thing lol. So now I'm not so unique lol...except for the head tattoos, of course.
  • What kind of diet and fitness regiment do you follow?
    Mostly low carb. No matter what specific pop-diet you follow if it isn't ultimately low-carb in nature, I wouldn't expect good results in terms of body fat percentage. I'd say my workout is pretty standard. I hit the gym and do the common groupings of back and biceps; chest, shoulders, and triceps; and legs. As far as legs, I just focus on glutes and adductors. I'll admit I don't put much focus on quads, abductors (not adductors), lower back. I care about proportions and working all muscle groups the same will yield waist-to-shoulder and glute-to-thigh results that I'm not really looking for.
  • How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or you are more of a homebody?
    I’m a traveler at heart. I have lived in a few countries: The US, most obviously, but also Guatemala (6 months) and China (3 years). I stayed in Ireland for three months, Spain for six weeks, Guernsey for a few weeks...I could go on but basically I love to travel and when I travel I like to stay and enjoy the place for a while as opposed to hopping from city to city, country to country. I hope to visit Tanzania or Iceland next. We'll see!
