Q: How did you find The Jungle, and what do you like about working at The Jungle?

A: I found the Jungle when my two favorite coaches at a gym named BAM Academy, were leaving to start the Jungle. What I love about working at the Jungle is that there is never a dull moment. I’m always working on a new project or directing people through epic activities. I get to do my two favorite professions which is building and coaching. Also I get to work with all of my friends and I meet awesome new people all the time. It’s extremely fulfilling to be apart of and help grow this amazing community.

Q: What's your Jungle animal?

A: The Wolf

Q: If you could be any animal, what would you be and why?

A: Definitely a wolf. I am a very pack oriented kind of person. Wolves are very social animals and have a great sense of team work and the importance of working together for the greater good of the pack. There’s a reason there are wolves of some sort all over the world.

Q: Why are you a coach?

A: I grew up doing all kinds of crazy tricks and stunts and then found out it was called parkour.

I believe that expressing creative freedom in the form of movement is good for not only the body but also the mind and spirit. I believe that play is an important pillar of the human experience and love showing people how to be better and play.

Q: What goals in life do you have?

A: Some of my major life goals are to facilitate the learning of a multitude of movement practices to as many people as possible. I also want to create a program that unites life lessons with movement practices. I want to start and be apart of businesses with my friends. I want to become a master communicator. I want to start a strong family with good core values that will have a positive impact wherever we go. Lastly, I’d love to travel the world and behold all the beauties of God’s creation.
