Becoming a firefighter/paramedic at age 19 certainly seemed like the perfect path to fulfill that mission. I am honored and proud to have served my community for 12 years. But though I was literally saving lives, rather than feeling fulfilled, I became increasingly aware of the vast divide between the quality of healthcare services accessible to people from different socioeconomic groups.

On my days off from the fire department, my eyes had been opened to the benefits of alternative types of healthcare, like IV therapy, that could only be enjoyed by those who could afford it.


I founded Liquivida, fueled by the knowledge I gained from my mentor during that time and a deep-rooted conviction that I could bring transformative wellness solutions to the masses. The journey was arduous, marked by more trials and tribulations than I could possibly have anticipated, but today Liquivida stands as one of the fastest growing health and wellness franchises in the country.
