Welcome to Project Thrive! I'm Sam, certified personal trainer and founder. With eight years of experience in the fitness industry, my goal is for you to become the strongest, most athletic and healthiest version of yourself. Originally from Long Island, NY, I started to get serious about my fitness journey while training as a college athlete playing division II baseball.

 

After college, I realized that fitness was my passion and after completely transforming my life, I wanted to help others transform their lives. I started doing that by becoming a coach at OrangeTheory and quickly worked my way up to head coach.

 

Fast forward, I decided I was ready to leave Long Island and see what North Carolina had in store for me. I became head coach of the Raleigh Midtown OrangeTheory location and had the chance to help countless people change their lives through fitness. 

​

In October 2022, Project Thrive was born. Since then, I have had the opportunity to help over 200 people transform not only their bodies, but also their minds through fitness in a way that allows them to thrive in their day to day lives.
