Beyond creative work, fitness is a major passion of mine. From the bodybuilding stage to competing in a HYROX race, I’m drawn to the discipline, structure, and creativity that come with pushing physical limits. I’m also a qualified personal trainer, which allows me to share that passion with others and stay connected to the latest trends in performance and wellbeing.
