Personal trainer and nutrition coach 💪🤓 Aspiring coder 💻 Perpetual learner 📚

I currently have a “distributed” lifestyle hopping back and forth across the Atlantic Ocean every few months. When in the US I stay with my girlfriend in CA and in Europe I spend my time between my native Riga, Paris (where my mum lives) and London (where I lived previously for 11 years).

It can get stressful at times because I work for myself and don’t have a regular income. Still, I’m more than happy to sacrifice security and steadiness for my dreams of building a health-focused software company and an online platform which could be described as a fitness challenge marketplace.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It’s hard to pick just one... These experiences have all made me stronger and a better person.

I beat a bone disease in my childhood. I went from hating exercise to winning a pro card with the WBFF (a top fitness federation).

I’ve also gone from having regularly being picked on as a kid to being comfortable with physical combat in the ring and being ready to always stand up against bullying or injustice and protect my loved ones or people in need.

Lastly, I climbed Kilimanjaro with zero preparation, which was incredible but also the hardest thing I’ve done.
