About Kelsey

Kelsey discovered his passion for health and fitness as a teenager through bodybuilding, and he knew early on that he wanted to build a career around improving the well-being of others. He started on a conventional track, earning a degree in Healthcare Administration, but came away convinced that conventional medicine was an incomplete system and began seeking a more functional, integrative approach. After 12 years as a personal trainer and gym owner, he earned his ADAPT Certified Functional Health Coach credential through the Kresser Institute and went on to spend several years at a concierge telehealth clinic, guiding patients through peptide therapies, stem cell treatments, medically supervised detoxes, psychedelic therapy, and HRT for both men and women. Kelsey excels at hormone optimization, cognitive enhancement, and habit change, and he is especially drawn to understanding the "why" behind addiction and maladaptive coping. After becoming a Marek client himself, he knew he had found what he now calls his "forever job." He prides himself on building meaningful relationships with his clients and helping them optimize their health quickly through evidence-based strategies aligned with their unique goals and philosophies.
