Coach Wes grew up on a farm just outside of Springfield in Washington County, Kentucky. He attended Washington County High School and St. Catharine College before continuing his studies at the University of Louisville.

When Wes began taking his own fitness journey seriously, he discovered how challenging and fun it could be. Turning that passion into a career was a natural next step, and a way to be part of something that matters to other people and to himself. Wes decided to earn his personal training certification so he could help other people along their path - and we are so glad he did.

Wes has always trained hard for his own strength and aesthetic goals, and he finds it incredibly gratifying to help clients look and feel the way they want to. He believes there is a unique path for everyone. There is no one-size-fits-all approach in fitness, or in the motivation it takes to reach your goals.

His coaching style is a gentle push. Wes loves finding the right way to communicate with each individual client, and his favorite moments are when a cue or explanation clicks and sticks. For him, fitness is about connecting mind and body and knowing you can get yourself to do hard things. His highest goal at work is creating an environment that makes it as easy as possible for his clients to get their minds in the right place.

Wes sees fitness as a universal language. We all have a body, and even though we each relate to our bodies differently, there is always common ground. He believes you can learn something new for your own journey from everyone, from experts to beginners, and he brings that curiosity to every session at Sol.

Outside of Sol Fitness, Wes loves drawing, is working on expanding his cooking skills, and has two rabbits he adores.
Fun fact: he loves old science fiction novels and hunts the shelves at Half Price Books for the one with the wildest cover art.

Guided by the reminder he gives himself when something feels out of reach, "It's just about getting my mind right," Wes brings patience, encouragement, and steady motivation to every session.
