Dylan finds peace and confidence through sport, fitness, and the community that comes with it. From the standard American kid chasing a soccer ball to a high school state champion in track and a collegiate cross country runner and coach, fitness has always been a component of his life.
After suffering through injuries that took him out of running competitively for three years He found himself searching deeply for answers by studying anatomy, physiology, and nutrition. This led him to pursue a biology degree at Lander University following one year of studying sports management at Winthrop University and picking up his ACSM personal training certification along the way.
As an all-around athlete, Dylan does as many sports as possible for both the sweat and the laughs. Here at the Suitcase of Courage Dylan is working to contribute an upbeat and analytical perspective to the clients we work with to aid in pain management and fitness attainment.
