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: helping those who take care of everyone else first rebuild the confidence, strength, and identity they once had.

Growing up in Knoxville, Tennessee I was blessed to have a dad who instilled what a strong father 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 locally in Knoxville, Tennessee with a dream: to create a community that pushes men to be better fathers, husbands, and leaders through health.

Today, Hicks Athletics does exactly that. Burnt out dads, business owners, busy professionals and those who’ve traded their fitness for responsibility have rebuild themselves from the inside out with us by being provided personalized services, expert 1:1 coaching and lifestyle accountability creating real, lasting change.
