Graduated student athlete with a B.S. in Neuroscience from the University of Tennessee, CPT and NASM Nutrition Coach. My passion for men’s health and discipline evolved into a mission: fulfilling my purpose in life by helping change the lives of others through health.

Growing up in Knoxville, Tennessee I was blessed to have a dad who instilled what a strong man looked like: true to his word, consistent, fit, confident, and most of all, a leader. As I matured I began to appreciate my father more and more as I was exposed to the rise in obesity, addiction, and depression in men around me.

After leaving Division 1 athletics and graduating from college, I began to pursue a fitness career in Knoxville, Tennessee with a dream: to create a difference that pushes others to be better people, friends, and leaders through health.

Today, Hicks Athletics does exactly that. We have helped change the lives of almost 100 people by being provided personalized services, expert 1:1 coaching and lifestyle accountability creating real, lasting change.
