I'm the new Director of Education for NPTI, Tampa. NPTI (The National Personal Training Institute) is a career college for aspiring Fitness Professionals. It is a 500 hr, university level course on anatomy, human phys, nutrition, biomechanics, etc... I also train a few private clients, mostly pro golfers.
After leaving the USAF in 1997 in Los Angeles (Venice Beach), CA, I opened my own fitness company, and trained clients in Venice Beach from 1997, until after September 11, 2001. The Trade Center attacks killed a good portion of my business, and prompted my move to Florida. In Jan 2002 I moved just outside of Orlando, where my parents had retired.
Now, after 13 years in the business, and a short stint in Real Estate, and career management consulting (mostly for former Military), I'm back full time in fitness and nutrition. I recently moved here, to St Petersburg, to open/run our brand new school in Tampa.
Never married, engaged once... No kids, no regrets, no headaches...
I play golf once or twice per week, and carry a 4 handicap. I shoot competitively in USPSA (Practical Pistol). I travel a lot, to the Caribbean mostly, for golf and beaches.
My Dad past away a year ago of cancer, but my Mom and Grandmother both live an hour away, in Leesburg, FL.
My brother, Drew (Andy), runs The Ward Law Firm, in New Hartford, and is married with three kids. He married Jenn Abend (Ward), of New Hartford, who he worked during the summers with in High School.
