Competition History

I have competed in over ten shows, but can’t remember the dates and names. I won the Teen National Championship for the years 2002 and 2003.

Getting Started

I originally started strongman at age 17. My Uncle Mark Boyle (who has a strong weightlifting background) had previously worked with Art McDermott and was interested in what he was doing at his new business “Highland Strength and Fitness”. We both went to Andover MA to check it out, and after our first training session we were hooked.

Goals

Gain some weight and keep working hard. I love the sport of strongman, and the people I’ve met through it have been great. I’m not looking to go pro or anything, just keep making gains and staying healthy.
