Over the last three decades, I spent my career successfully launching and growing start-ups as well as existing businesses.

I have a degree in Physical Education with a major in Exercise Physiology and Economics.

From concept to creation, I build companies from the ground up. I have extensive experience managing all of the facets of a business, from writing a business plan, raising investment capital, overseeing day-to-day operations, leading the marketing and sales team, and managing the company finances.

I am a skilled operations manager and has been responsible for the complete buildout of many different business concepts. These functions included creating the facility's original design layout, overseeing the construction process, organizing the building permits, purchasing and placing equipment, and successfully launching the facility.

As Co-Founder & Vice President of Way Beyond Children's Lifestyle Centers, Founder & CEO of ActiveKidz, and Owner & Co-Founder of Funxion Fitness, I performed many roles and continues to implement his professional, entrepreneurial skills to execute new concepts and build real, profitable companies.

Some of my most significant personal accomplishments include my 3rd Degree Black Belt in Judo and my two bronze medals for South Africa at the 1981 World Maccabiah Games.

Before immigrating to the USA, I also owned and operated six judo clubs that produced 18 national champions over nine years.

Today, I live in San Diego with my amazing wife and two children.
