Certified Personal Trainer | CCC Fitness Coordinator | TPI Certified Instructor |

Neil, There’s something about helping someone reach a goal or helping them be able to do something that they didn’t think was possible for them that excites me. Seeing my clients have success and crush the goals that we set is what keeps me going and what makes me enjoy coming to work every day. Every day I get to help someone become a better version of themselves and I am honored to be a part of their journey! Neil has been with Performance Training Inc. for 8 years.
