“After growing up on Long Island, New York and serving in the Air Force in Florida, I felt good about being in the South and buying my first house in Georgia. I have always enjoyed interacting with and working with Special Needs individuals in the sporting arena. The biggest life lesson this population has taught me is that the only limits you fade are the ones you set. My goal for my ReClif clients is to have them become the healthiest, strongest, and happiest versions of themselves.”
