Originally from California, Sam’s love for the outdoors and commitment to personal growth led him to pursue a career in coaching. Since 2018, he has focused on guiding others to improve their fitness, mindset, and overall potential, bringing his unique perspective and expertise to THCF.
Sam’s introduction to CrossFit while stationed in South Korea was a life-changing moment.

CrossFit not only shaped his physical fitness but also strengthened the mindset that has been key to his success.
