I created the BodyWedge21 exercise patent, and my work has been featured in Oprah, SHAPE, and Men’s Health. Major retailers like Walmart, Target, and CVS have also stocked my products.
I have also been the face of Marriott’s in-room fitness program. What sets me apart is my relentless focus on ROI-driven marketing, which has been the cornerstone of my brand’s success.
