Affiliations
I have a long-standing interest in health, performance, and human physiology, which I channel through bodybuilding and strength training. My routine reflects a disciplined lifestyle centred on optimisation — from structured nutrition and recovery strategies to biomechanics and postural correction. I'm particularly fascinated by how anatomical asymmetries influence movement and performance, and I often experiment with corrective protocols to restore muscular balance.
Outside the gym, I enjoy exploring creative outlets such as documentary filmmaking, photography, and music production. These pursuits allow me to blend analytical structure with artistic storytelling, and reflect my broader curiosity about self-mastery, lifestyle design, and helping others realise their physical and mental potential.
