I survived an 11 vehicle accident in Arizona that was started by an over-speeding truck driven by a man who was high on drugs and hit me head-on at 65 mph, as I was driving a Mazda 626. I was so badly injured, I now have titanium implanted in my cranium, left cheek, jaw, left shoulder, ribs and my "practically shattered" pelvis. But I recovered quickly in the therapy sessions in the rehab center I went to after leaving the hospital where I was for 3 months, I.C.U. for 1.5 months and an induced comma for 2 weeks. They were estimating "at least 1 year" but were surprised they could release me in just 5 weeks. They even compared me to Wolverine from X-men in the movies for all the titanium now in my bones and the speedy recovery. They credited my fitness level and "athletic mentality." Then they found out that I used to be a fitness trainer in NY. They said that I "must've been a tremendous trainer."

I had been told by many people and friends that my talents or "gifts" are in training people. To start it off, I was a coach, trainer, member and founder of a dragon boat rowing team in Flushing, NY, where I managed to recruit almost 70 people into the team. And then, from 2001 to 2008, competing up to 4 competitions a year, in NY, NJ, CT, Boston, Philly, Toronto, Montreal, and elsewhere, we managed to win 15 medals and 7 trophies.

Then one of the members of that team was a personal trainer and suggested that I go to personal fitness training. So I did after the company I was working for closed, due to the owner's retirement.

I became a personal fitness trainer for NY Sports Club, where I was able to help another trainer help a client lose 160 lbs in just 3 months with training and diet tips.

I stopped training to go to Seoul, South Korea to teach English as a Second Language, where I managed to help at least 4 students get accepted and enrolled into schools in the USA and Great Britain. One of the students was accepted into a school in Arizona, USA. He gives me credit for that, but also said that I showed him some excellent exercises that helped him become the highest scoring running back for his high school football team, which is something, because, this kid, was a Korean kid who had NEVER HEARD of American football before me.
